# Snowflake

## Snowflake credential requirements

Snowflake allows for cross account data access via secure [data shares](https://docs.snowflake.net/manuals/user-guide/data-sharing-intro.html) and Simon takes advantage of this capability so you can share the required schemas, tables and fields directly into your Simon account.

Start by setting up a [secure data share in Snowflake](https://docs.snowflake.net/manuals/user-guide/data-sharing-gs.html), then:

1. Create a `share` using the `accountadmin` role.
2. Add `objects` to the share by granting privileges.
3. Add Simon's Snowflake account to the newly created share.<br>
