Unable to connect to a snowflake database and receiving the error

 

CURLerror (curl_easy_perform() failed) - code = 6 msg = 'Couldn't resolve  host name'.


This is caused by an incorrect server name.





The server name must be left in the format

xxx.snowflakecomputing.com


putting the http or https fqdn will cause it to error
