How to connect to Snowflake server?

[tochalius]

Hi everyone,

I'd like to know if someone tried to find out any solution, how to connect desktop MS Excel to Snowflake server (as well as we connect to this server via Tableau). Is there any possibility how do that?

Thanks, Tomas.

No-one can help based on the information you've given. A snowflake server is a generic term, not a type of server. So your question could be rephrased as - how do I connect Excel to another computer?

The answer to that is rather obvious - it depends.

Specifically what are you trying to connect to? One presumes a database on the server, there are wizards built into Excel for doing this, though depending on what type of database it is, you may need to download and install drivers. You'll need information such as network path, port number, username and password etc.
