Hi there,

I was wondering if it is possible to connect Ignition to Snowflake and if so how would i go about doing it?

Would i have to setup a manual JDBC driver in the Gateway?

Thanks

It is possible and you do have to set up a translator to work with their JDBC driver.

There is a Support Knowledge Base Article that answers your question in more detail:
