[Snowflake Connector] Unable to See Snowflake Option When Creating Database Connection
snowflake-connector
Service icon
Forge asset by Rita Tomé

Hello,

I am trying to connect my OutSystems personal environment to Snowflake. I have:

  1. Created a Snowflake trial account
  2. Installed the Snowflake Connector from Forge

Now, when I try to create a new database connection in Service Center, the DBMS dropdown does not show “Snowflake” - it only shows SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, etc.

Do I need to configure Snowflake differently?

Any guidance on properly connecting Snowflake with OutSystems would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Namara

Hi,

That is because you do not need to define a database connector. The Database connection tab in Service Center only is required to connect or RDMS (Relational Database Management System). Snowflake is not an RDMS, a but cloud-native data warehouse and data platform.

Please follow the detailed instructions on the Documentation tab of the Forge component, to configure the connection to Snowflake.

Regards,

Daniel
