Private links to access Snowflake

You can access Snowflake using AWS or Azure Private Link endpoints.
When you create a Snowflake Data Cloud connection, specify the Snowflake private link account name in the Account field in the connection properties.
The AWS or Azure Private Link setup ensures that the connection to Snowflake uses the AWS or Azure internal network and does not take place over the public Internet.
To connect to the Snowflake account over the private AWS network, see AWS Private Link and Snowflake.
To connect to the Snowflake account over the private Azure network, see Azure Private Link and Snowflake.
