Objective Get an operational RBAC configuration from scratch in minutes
What is RBAC in Snowflake RBAC role-based control determines who can access what in your Snowflake environment. You assign privileges to roles and then assign roles to users to manage access centrally and audibly
Main RBAC objects
USER Represents a person or service
ROLE Groups privileges and permissions
WAREHOUSE Compute power to run queries
DATABASE and SCHEMA Logical data containers
TABLE and VIEW Where data resides
Quick example to copy and paste
Quick start SQL CREATE ROLE analyst; CREATE ROLE engineer; CREATE USER john PASSWORD=Passw0rd! DEFAULT_ROLE=analyst; GRANT ROLE analyst TO USER john; CREATE USER jane PASSWORD=Passw0rd! DEFAULT_ROLE=engineer; GRANT ROLE engineer TO USER jane; GRANT ROLE analyst TO ROLE sysadmin; GRANT ROLE engineer TO ROLE sysadmin;
Best practices Define roles by responsibility, apply the principle of least privilege, segregate administrative and operational roles, separate development and production environments, and document assignments to facilitate audits and compliance
