Snowflake Account Settings
Continuous Delivery | Release to Production 22 September 2021
New features
We’re excited to announce that Blackboard Data now has a Snowflake Account Settings panel from which you can manage your service account. Blackboard Data service accounts allow you to perform Machine to Machine connections to your Snowflake Reader Account via the supported Snowflake Connectors & Drivers. Institutions that use Blackboard Data automatically get a service account provisioned. You can now access it through Blackboard Data's (data.blackboard.com) new Settings menu.
To access this page, you'll need a Blackboard Data Account (Auth0) or have your institutional account setup (BbSSO).
Service accounts have a fixed password expiration date of 60 days. On the Settings page, you can check the status of the account password as well as a link to change your password.
Each institution will get one (1) service account with the following characteristics:
-
Limited to an XS Warehouse with a credit limit of 350 Snowflake credits(!) per month.
A Snowflake Credit is approximately 1 hour of usage of Snowflake.
-
Limited to the supported Snowflake Connectors & Drivers.
