Getting Started with Cypher

Create a New Warehouse #

Before starting, ensure that a warehouse is available in your current connection. If not, create a new warehouse using the following SQL command:

CREATE WAREHOUSE IF NOT EXISTS edna_consumer_warehouse;

Important pre installation step #

As a best practice the application should be installed with a role. The Snowflake Administrator using the AccountAdmin role should execute the following SQL

Switch to the ACCOUNTADMIN role: #

USE ROLE ACCOUNTADMIN;
CREATE ROLE IF NOT EXISTS EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE DATABASE ON ACCOUNT TO ROLE EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE WAREHOUSE ON ACCOUNT TO ROLE EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE COMPUTE POOL ON ACCOUNT TO ROLE EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE INTEGRATION ON ACCOUNT TO ROLE EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE APPLICATION  ON ACCOUNT TO ROLE EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE ;
GRANT IMPORT SHARE ON ACCOUNT TO EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE SHARE ON ACCOUNT TO EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE;
GRANT MANAGE EVENT SHARING ON ACCOUNT TO EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE;
GRANT BIND SERVICE ENDPOINT ON ACCOUNT TO ROLE EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE WITH GRANT OPTION;
 
GRANT ROLE EDNA_APPS_CONSUMER_ROLE to USER <add-usernames>;  -- or add  to existing role

Prepare objects in account #

Execute the following commands with the ACCOUNTADMIN role to set up the necessary database, schema, table, and view that will be used in the application.

Create the database and schema: #

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS EDNA_APP_CONSUMER_DB;
CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS EDNA_APP_CONSUMER_DB.DATA;

Create the table for EDNA_APP_URL: #

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS EDNA_APP_CONSUMER_DB.DATA.EDNA_APP_URL(
  APP_URL VARCHAR, 
  APP_NAME VARCHAR
);

Once the pre-installation steps are completed, click on ‘Grant’ to grant privileges. Thereafter click on ‘Activate’ to start the configuration process.  

Note: #

Objects with references are created within stored procedures in the setup_script.sql, not inside user-defined functions (UDFs), as UDFs resolve references only at build-time.
