Snowflake
15 tools available
Snowflake is a cloud-based data warehouse offering elastic scaling, secure data sharing, and SQL analytics across multiple cloud environments
Connect Snowflake to Definable to automate repetitive tasks, sync data with the rest of your stack, trigger on real-world events. Personas call Snowflake's 15 tools directly from chat or scheduled flows. You can wire it into any persona to read, write, and react when an event fires.

Snowflake actions 15
Every Snowflake action below is a callable tool any Definable persona can invoke.
Cancel Statement Execution
Cancels the execution of a running SQL statement. Use this action to stop a long-running query.
Check Statement Status
Retrieves the status and results of a previously submitted SQL statement using its statement handle. Use this to poll async queries submitted via SNOWFLAKE_SUBMIT_SQL_STATEMENT; call repeatedly until status is no longer pending. Use SNOWFLAKE_CANCEL_STATEMENT to abort a hanging query.
Execute SQL
Execute SQL statements in Snowflake and retrieve results. Supports SELECT queries for data retrieval, DDL statements (CREATE, ALTER, DROP) for schema management, and DML statements (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) for data modification. Returns comprehensive result metadata including column types, row counts, and execution status. Unquoted SQL identifiers are auto-uppercased by Snowflake — use matching case in `database`, `schema_name`, `warehouse`, and `role` parameters to avoid 'object not found' errors. Always apply explicit time-range filters and a LIMIT clause to unbounded SELECT queries to prevent large, slow result sets.
Fetch Catalog Integration
Retrieves detailed configuration and metadata for a specific catalog integration. Catalog integrations allow Snowflake to connect to external Apache Iceberg catalogs (AWS Glue, Snowflake Open Catalog/Polaris, or Apache Iceberg REST catalogs) to query Iceberg tables managed by those external systems.
Get Active Scheduled Maintenances
Retrieves a list of any active scheduled maintenances currently in the In Progress or Verifying state.
Get All Scheduled Maintenances
Retrieves a list of the 50 most recent scheduled maintenances, including those in the Completed state.
Get Component Status
Retrieves the status of individual components, each listed with its current status.
Get Status Rollup
Retrieves the status rollup for the entire page, including indicators and human-readable descriptions of the blended component status.
Get Status Summary
Retrieves the current status summary from Snowflake's public status page (status.snowflake.com). Returns overall system status, operational status of all regional components (AWS, Azure, GCP regions), any unresolved incidents, and upcoming or in-progress scheduled maintenances. This is a public endpoint that provides global Snowflake service status, not account-specific information.
Get Unresolved Incidents
Retrieves a list of any unresolved incidents from the Snowflake status page. This endpoint returns incidents currently in the Investigating, Identified, or Monitoring state. Returns an empty list if there are no active incidents. This is a public status page API that does not require authentication.
Get Upcoming Scheduled Maintenances
Retrieves upcoming scheduled maintenances from Snowflake's public status page. This action queries the Snowflake status API to get a list of any scheduled maintenance events that are still in the 'Scheduled' state (not yet started or completed). The response includes maintenance details such as impact level, scheduled time windows, incident updates, and direct links to the maintenance notices. Note: This uses Snowflake's public status API and does not require authentication.
Show Databases
Lists all databases for which you have access privileges. Shows database metadata including name, creation date, owner, retention time, and more. Can filter results and include dropped databases within Time Travel retention period.
Show Schemas
Lists all schemas for which you have access privileges. Shows schema metadata including name, creation date, owner, database, retention time, and more. Can filter results and include dropped schemas within Time Travel retention period.
Show Tables
Lists all tables for which you have access privileges. Shows table metadata including name, creation date, owner, database, schema, row count, size in bytes, clustering keys, and more. Can filter results and include dropped tables within Time Travel retention period.
Submit SQL Statement (Deprecated)
DEPRECATED: Use ExecuteSql instead. Submits a SQL statement for execution. Execution is asynchronous; monitor status with SNOWFLAKE_CHECK_STATEMENT_STATUS for long-running queries.
Airtable
Airtable merges spreadsheet functionality with database power, enabling teams to organize projects, track tasks, and collaborate through customizable views, automation, and integrations for data management
Baserow
Baserow is an open-source database tool that lets teams build no-code data applications, collaborate on records, and integrate with other services for data management
Bonsai
Bonsai is a fully managed Elasticsearch and OpenSearch hosting service, providing scalable search infrastructure with automatic backups, security, and monitoring.
Census Bureau
The Census Bureau Data API provides developers with access to a wide range of statistical data collected by the U.S. Census Bureau, facilitating integration into applications and data visualizations.
ClickHouse
ClickHouse is a fast open-source column-oriented database management system for real-time analytics and big data processing with SQL support
Elasticsearch
Elasticsearch is a distributed, RESTful search and analytics engine capable of addressing a growing number of use cases. It provides real-time search and analytics for all types of data.
Frequently asked questions
What can I automate with Snowflake on Definable?
Anything Snowflake exposes through its API. Common databases workflows on Definable include automate repetitive tasks, sync data with the rest of your stack, trigger on real-world events. Personas can call any of the 15 Snowflake tools directly, then chain the result into another integration without you writing code.
How does Snowflake authentication work?
Snowflake uses OAUTH2 on Definable. You connect once from the integrations page, scoped to the permissions you choose, and from then on any persona that has the integration enabled can act on your behalf. Tokens are encrypted at rest and rotated automatically.
Is the Snowflake integration included in my Definable plan?
Yes — every Definable plan, including Starter, includes access to all 15 Snowflake tools. You only need a separate Snowflake subscription if Snowflake itself charges per seat or per API call.
Is using Snowflake through Definable secure?
Every call from a persona to Snowflake is logged with the user, persona, prompt, and response. Tokens never leave Definable's secrets vault, scopes are configurable per persona, and you can revoke access at any time from the integration page.
How do I get started with Snowflake on Definable?
Sign up for Definable, open the integrations page, find Snowflake, and connect via OAuth or API key. You can immediately attach Snowflake to any persona and start running workflows. The free Starter plan includes 5,000 credits/month.
What Snowflake actions does Definable expose?
Definable exposes all 15 Snowflake actions as callable tools — including `Cancel Statement Execution`, `Check Statement Status`, `Execute SQL`, plus 12 more. Each tool gets a typed parameter schema so personas know exactly how to call it.
