Manage provider profiles¶

The Data Exchange has the following requirements:

A full Snowflake account to provide or consume data sets; reader accounts are not supported.
By default, the ACCOUNTADMIN role can perform provider functions, such as creating a listing, creating a provider profile, reviewing listing requests, etc. These tasks can be delegated to other roles. For more information, see Grant privileges to other roles.

Provider profile fields¶

The following table describes parameters required for creating and configuring your provider profile in the Data Exchange.

Field Name	Description	Example
Logo	A high-resolution image of your logo in the JPG or PNG format. The file size cannot exceed 2MB. Square image is recommended.	image.jpg
Company Name	Company name or brand name as it appears in the data listing. This is not the name of your Snowflake account. If the provider name includes special characters, these characters are parsed out in the suggested database name. The company name is the name of the provider profile. As a provider, you can have more than one provider profile (the provider nickname must be unique for each profile). When you publish a listing, you associate it with a provider profile.	ACME
Description	A short introduction (2-3 sentences) of the provider.	Acme, recognized and documented as the most accurate source of weather forecasts and warnings in the world, has saved tens of thousands of lives, prevented hundreds of thousands of injuries and tens of billions of dollars in property damage.
