For customers sending (or planning to send) Snowflake cost & usage data to DoiT Snowflake Intelligence, key-pair authentication is now supported and required for new connections, and existing password-based LEGACY_SERVICE users must migrate by June 2026.

Snowflake is deprecating password-only LEGACY_SERVICE users, with full removal planned for June 2026. In response, we’ve added support for key-pair authentication. This removes passwords from the flow and gives you stronger security and a cleaner audit trail for your Snowflake connection.

What this means:

• Starting today, key-pair authentication is the only way you’ll be able to set up the Snowflake Intelligence
• If you’ve already set up the integration with a LEGACY_SERVICE user, migrate to key-pair authentication before June 2026 to avoid interruption
