# Set up a Snowflake connector

> Integrate your Snowflake instance with C1 to run user access reviews, enable just-in-time access requests, and easily provision and deprovision access.

<Tip>
  **A newer version of this connector is available.** This version of the connector is no longer available for installation. If you're setting up a Snowflake connector with C1 for the first time, use the [v2 version](/baton/snowflake).
</Tip>

## Capabilities

* Sync user identities from Snowflake to C1

* Resources supported:
  * Roles

## Add a new Snowflake connector

<Warning>
  This task requires either the **Connector Administrator** or **Super Administrator** role in C1.
</Warning>

<Steps>
  <Step>
    In C1, navigate to **Apps** > **Connectors** and click **Add connector**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Search for **Snowflake** and click **Add**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Choose where to add the connector: **Create a new app**, or **Add to an existing app** (then select the app).

    If you're creating a new app, choose whether to link it to an application discovered from your identity provider: select **Yes** and pick the IdP application, or **No** to continue with just the connector.

    <Tip>
      **Do you SSO into Snowflake using your identity, SSO, or federation provider?** If so, link the connector to the Snowflake application already discovered from your provider, rather than continuing without a link.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Set the connector's **Name** and, optionally, a **Description**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click the pencil icon next to **Owners** to choose who can configure and manage this connector.

    <Warning>
      A Snowflake connector owner must have the following permissions:

      * **Connector Administrator** or **Super Administrator** role in C1
      * **Manage Grants** global privilege in Snowflake
    </Warning>
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click **Add**. The connector is created and its configuration page opens.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Next steps

Proceed to [Configure your Snowflake connector](/baton/v1/snowflake#configure-your-snowflake-connector) for instructions on integrating Snowflake with C1.

## Configure your Snowflake connector

<Warning>
  A user with the **Connector Administrator** or **Super Administrator** role in C1 and **Manage Grants** global privilege in Snowflake must perform this task.
</Warning>

<Warning>
  You will be required to choose a Snowflake role with **Manage Grants** global privilege after the initial connector setup is complete.
</Warning>

### Step 1: Locate the Snowflake Locator for your account

<Steps>
  <Step>
    In Snowflake, click **Organization**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Locate the account you wish to connect to C1 in the accounts list.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Hover over the value in the **LOCATOR** column, and click the copy function. We'll use this in Step 2.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Step 2: Add your Snowflake credentials to C1

<Steps>
  <Step>
    In C1, navigate to the Snowflake connector by either:

    * Clicking the **Set up connector** link in the email you received about configuring the connector.
    * Navigate to **Connectors** > **Snowflake** (if there is more than one **Snowflake** listed, click the one with your name listed as owner and the status **Not connected**).
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Find the **Settings** area of the page and click **Edit**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    In the **Account ID / Locator** field, enter the locator you looked up in Step 1.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    In the **Username** field, enter your Snowflake account username.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    In the **Password** field, enter your Snowflake account password.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click **Save**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    The connector's label changes to **Syncing**, followed by **Connected**. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Step 3: Choose a role in Snowflake

<Steps>
  <Step>
    In Snowflake, go to **User roles** and click **Edit**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Select a user role. A role that's equivalent to **SECURITYADMIN** is required.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click **Add User role**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click **Save**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Return to C1. After you see the **Connector updated** message, click on **View logs** to verify that the connector syncs successfully.
  </Step>
</Steps>

**Done.** Your Snowflake connector is now pulling access data into C1.
