Run a query, deliver the result by email or to cloud storage, on demand or on a schedule. Everything runs inside your Snowflake account.
SnowExporter lets a Snowflake user run a query and deliver the result without leaving Snowflake. Results can be emailed, downloaded via a presigned link, or written as a file to an internal Snowflake stage or to AWS S3, GCP GCS, or Azure Blob — once-off or on a recurring schedule. Because SnowExporter is a Snowflake Native App, all execution and all data stay inside your Snowflake account.
Snowflake Native Apps run inside the customer's Snowflake account, not on the provider's infrastructure. Your data is never copied or shared with the app vendor. You retain full control over what the app can do by granting only the privileges it needs.
SnowExporter is designed to ask for the minimum. The setup helpers built into the app generate
the exact SQL snippets for each grant, so your ACCOUNTADMIN knows exactly what
is being granted before they paste anything.
Automatic detection of PII / PCI / PHI / credential columns (45 built-in rules, extendable). Mask-by-default on every delivery. Compliance audit log. New Reports tab for compliance officers with CSV export for GRC workflows.
Two new delivery modes. Webhook posts to your HTTPS endpoint with signed-secret auth and retries. SFTP uploads files to your server with password or SSH-key auth.
Describe an export in plain English; Cortex extracts the SQL, schedule, delivery mode, and destination. Pro / Trial only. Requires Snowflake Cortex on the account.
Deliver query results to a Slack or Microsoft Teams channel as a monospace table, with an optional downloadable file for larger results.
Email the result in the message body (≤50 rows) or as a presigned download link to a file in an internal stage.
Write a CSV or JSON file to an internal stage or to AWS S3, GCP GCS, or Azure Blob — with optional GZIP and optional timestamp suffix.
Cron-based schedules for any delivery mode. Configurable timezone. Pause, resume, or delete from the Scheduled Exports page.
Email recipients, Slack channels, and Teams channels under a single 📣 Notifications tab. Per-channel Description, Business Contact, and one-click Test button.
Many destinations and channels of each type. Per-destination Description, Business Contact, and independent enable/disable.
Per-destination "allowed roles" multiselect, recorded and surfaced in Settings → Users. See the limitations section for the v1.3 enforcement caveat (unchanged from v1.0).
Activity dashboard on Home. Full audit log on the Logs page with per-query actual compute
credits pulled from ACCOUNT_USAGE.
