What kind of authentication do Snowpipe REST endpoints use?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Snowpipe uses key-based authentication for its REST endpoints. This involves generating and using a key pair (public and private keys) to securely authenticate API requests.

Generate Key Pair: Generate a public and private key pair.

Register Public Key: Register the public key with the Snowflake user that will be making the API requests.

Authenticate Requests: Use the private key to sign API requests sent to Snowpipe REST endpoints.

Username and password? Really? In this day and age? Next you'll tell me Snowpipe uses carrier pigeons to transfer data. Key-based is the way to go, my dudes.

Hmm, I'd say it's Single Sign-On (SSO). Snowflake is all about that enterprise-level security, you know? Who needs usernames and passwords these days?

I'm pretty sure it's OAuth. Snowflake loves their OAuth these days. Though I guess key-based could work too.

Snowpipe REST endpoints definitely use key-based authentication. It's the most secure option for a cloud-based data pipeline like Snowpipe.
