Overview
Snowflake is an analytic data warehouse that is fast, easy to use, and pliable. We have built the Snowflake Connected system to employ these benefits in Appian. You can use this connected system to create an integration object that can help perform SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CALL FUNCTION or STORED PROCEDURE operations in the Snowflake Database tables or views.
To establish the connection, while creating a connected system you will need
Key Features & Functionality
Our test environment was upgraded to 24.2 Sunday night. After the upgrade we could no longer sync with Snowflake. Up to that point, everything worked perfectly fine. Now, we get errors when the sync tries to run.
"Unable to sync due to an error in the Record Data Source during batch number 1
The Record Data Source returned an error. Title: Error Occurred Detail: net.snowflake.client.jdbc.SnowflakeSQLException: JDBC driver internal error: exception creating result java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class net.snowflake.client.jdbc.internal.apache.arrow.memory.RootAllocator at net.snowflake.client.jdbc.SnowflakeResultSetSerializableV1.create(SnowflakeResultSetSerializableV1.java:586). in query SELECT * FROM vwTHERAPYTYPE OFFSET 0 ROWS FETCH NEXT 1000 ROWS ONLY Message: JDBC driver internal error: exception creating result java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class net.snowflake.client.jdbc.internal.apache.arrow.memory.RootAllocator at net.snowflake.client.jdbc.SnowflakeResultSetSerializableV1.create(SnowflakeResultSetSerializableV1.java:586)."
We're getting the same error. Appian 24.2 with plugin version 3.1.0. Test connection from the Connected System object is successful, but all integrations getting the error.
This solution works!!
24.2 utilizes Java 17. There is a known Snowflake issue regarding this. As a workaround, we were able to update the connection string within Snowflake to allow us to start syncing again.
