准备工作¶

If your organization has a Snowflake account, check with your Snowflake account administrator to see if a user was created for you. If your organization doesn't have a Snowflake account, you can sign up for a free trial account (https://signup.snowflake.com/) or contact us directly to request an account.

After you have access to a Snowflake account and can sign in as a user, you can access Snowflake by using any of the following methods:

• Snowflake 界面：

  • Snowsight, Snowflake's browser-based web interface

  • 命令行客户端：

    • Snowflake CLI, for developer-centric workloads and SQL operations

    • SnowSQL, for SQL operations

  • 编程接口，例如 Snowflake 连接器、驱动程序和 Snowpark API。有关这些及其他编程接口的概述，请参阅 开发应用程序和扩展。

• 应用程序：

  • 您可以通过应用程序访问 Snowflake。Snowflake 提供了多种创建和使用应用程序的方法。您的组织可能会创建应用程序并提供给您使用，或者您也可以使用 Snowflake Marketplace 或 Snowflake 生态系统 中提供的第三方应用程序。

有关这些工具和界面的信息，请参阅 连接到 Snowflake 的应用程序和工具。
