DataSync for Snowflake is a single-direction (ServiceNow to Snowflake) integration that Bulk Shares and Dynamic shares to synchronize data for the collection of ServiceNow data into a Snowflake data warehouse.
NOTE:
WARNING:
- If you will be setting up the DataSync Agent to also connect to the same database, you will want to configure the Agent to use the same column cases. By default, the Snowflake Bulk Load Meshlet uses lowercase for the column names. Also, the QUOTED_IDENTIFIERS_IGNORE_CASE setting in Snowflake should be kept with its default value of false.
- The meshlet uses the TIMEZONE session parameter to connect to Snowflake in order to save all timestamps in UTC . By default, glide_date_time field is mapped to the TIMESTAMP_LTZ(9) column type. This allows you to query using a local timezone as needed.
