Methods for configuring database and schema

You only need to include the database and schema config in one of these 3 places, in order of priority (so if all 3 are included, #1 takes priority, then #2, then #3):
  1. Inlude the db and schema directly in the query (e.g. select * from [database_name].[schema_name].[table_name];). This is supported when NOT using the “raw sql” query option.
  2. Include the db and schema in the SQL code block header inputs, as mentioned in Steps 6 and 7 of the “Using SQL block” section above.
  3. Include the default db and schema in the io_config.yaml file using these fields:
SNOWFLAKE_DEFAULT_DB: YOUR_DB_NAME
SNOWFLAKE_DEFAULT_SCHEMA: YOUR_SCHEMA_NAME
