Environment
  • Alteryx Designer
  • Snowflake
    • Third party connector macro "Snowflake Input"
    • ODBC DSN String

 

Cause
  • Snowflake Oauth/SSO is supported only with In-DB Tools using DCM
  • The third party macro was not built using In-DB
Resolution
  1. Use In-DB tools
  2. Use DCM to setup the Snowflake connection for OAuth Authentication credentials. The credential items required are as follows:
  • Client ID
  • OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET
  • Port
  • Redirect URL
