Hi @ahmadbahr, and welcome to our forums! :wave:

Connecting Streamlit to Snowflake using AzureAD auth involves using the Snowflake Python connector and the appropriate auth parameters.

You need to install the snowflake-connector-python and streamlit packages, set up Snowflake for AzureAD authentication, use the Snowflake Python connector with the Azure Tenant ID for authentication.

Here’s a helpful tutorial on that topic: Connect Streamlit to Snowflake - Streamlit Docs

Best of luck, and feel free to reach out if you have further questions!

Thanks Charly,
I think I was not clear enough. I have access to Snowflake and Streamlit. I have no local install. we access snowflake through URL for our accounts directly through Snowflake. what I was looking for is how to have that Streamlit which comes inside Snowflake “Suite” talk to Snowflake database. when I open streamlit, I see installed packages info as Python 3.8*, snowflake-snowpark (latest) and streamlit 1.22.0
Is that helpful

Thanks

I’m sorry, but just to make sure I’m understanding the questions, can you please elaborate on the following:

Hi Charly,

In my work, we can access Streamlit through Snowflake. The screenshot below partially shows streamlit as one of the icons to the left. If I click on it, it opens the installed Streamlit provided by Snowflake for that account. I want to know how to have that Streamlit talk to Snowflake database.
Is the below screenshot clear?

Thanks @ahmadbahr.

Here’s the feedback from the Devs:

They should see that exact app if they create a new streamlit app, and it should show session, how you can get access to it. Once you have a session, you can just do normal Snowpark, such as: Working with DataFrames in Snowpark Python | Snowflake Documentation

Or you can use session.sql to use SQL queries Working with DataFrames in Snowpark Python | Snowflake Documentation

Does this help you?

Best,
Charly
