Can you prevent Snowsight from using Account URL when using client redirect/connection url?
My snowflake org is "foo"
I use a "connection object" named "bi", so my connection url is "foo-bi.snowflakecomputing.com". That is what I want the company's users/business partners to see.
That url allows logging in to a Snowflake connecting to an account "foo-biprod" in Snowsight, snowflake for python connector, and other software that needs to query objects in the account.
After logging into Snowsight, the "ugly"/"confusing" account name is visible in the browser's address bar, and some of my team object to the account name being visible.
- Is there any way to prevent Snowsight showing the account name when you use a connection URL to sign on?
- Does any user-facing client software make the account name visible? I can't think of anything myself -- business users use a SQL client or a BI tool. They configure it with the connection url.
- If other accounts create shares to us, they do have to have our consumer account name(s) that can/might be reading from Share? I think it is not possible to share to a connection URL, and publisher would need account name(s). From example in docs I am not sure if org-acct syntax is supported anyway in shares. (The example is
ALTER SHARE sales_s ADD ACCOUNTS=xy12345, yz23456;). - If we create shares to other accounts, is the name of our account needed by the owner of the consumer account?
Any other places/audiences that the account name is going to leak and we can't use the connection url? E.g. SaaS vendors?
