SnowSQL

SnowSQL is legacy, replaced by Snowflake CLI (legacy since 2026).

SnowSQL → Snowflake CLI

Snowflake's command-line SQL client, used to run queries and every DDL and DML operation including loading data into and unloading it out of tables.

• Its documentation calls it legacy in the opening sentence, then spends the next paragraph recommending you leave. 🔗
• It still ships releases, just nothing new in them - Snowflake says features and enhancements now go only to its replacement. 🔗
