SUNDECK$SET_SERVICE_ACCOUNT

To allow Sundeck access to Snowflake outside of a user session and enable some additional functionality from the Sundeck Native App (lables, query monitors and more), user needs to configure a service account with the Snowflake credentials.

This function sets the service account that Sundeck will also use to access Snowflake metadata about user’s account, such as table sizes or lists of warehouses,database ,schemas and tables.

Two forms of authentication are supported for service account users: basic user/password or key/pair authentication as described in Key-pair authentication and key-pair rotation

Sundeck ADMIN privilege is required to run this function. See GRANT SUNDECK ROLE

Depending on the kind of authentication, next mandatory parameter will be either password or rsa_private_key.

When passing rsa_private_key as a parameter:

Simple user/password authentication:

select SUNDECK$SET_SERVICE_ACCOUNT({'username': 'ube', 'password': '***', 'role': 'ACCOUNTADMIN', 'warehouse': 'SMALL_WH'});

SELECT SUNDECK$SET_SERVICE_ACCOUNT({'username': 'test', 
			            'rsa_private_key': 'MIIFDjBABgkqhki...'
                                    'rsa_private_key_passphrase': 'SundeckIsAGreatCompany', 
				    'role' : 'ACCOUNTADMIN',
