Snowflake Snowpark for Python
Project description
Snowflake Snowpark Python and Snowpark pandas APIs
The Snowpark library provides intuitive APIs for querying and processing data in a data pipeline. Using this library, you can build applications that process data in Snowflake without having to move data to the system where your application code runs.

Getting started
Have your Snowflake account ready
If you don't have a Snowflake account yet, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial account.
Create a Python virtual environment
You can use miniconda, anaconda, or virtualenv to create a Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10 or 3.11 virtual environment.
For Snowpark pandas, only Python 3.9, 3.10, or 3.11 is supported.
To have the best experience when using it with UDFs, creating a local conda environment with the Snowflake channel is recommended.
Install the library to the Python virtual environment
pip install snowflake-snowpark-python
To use the Snowpark pandas API, you can optionally install the following, which installs modin in the same environment. The Snowpark pandas API provides a familiar interface for pandas users to query and process data directly in Snowflake.
pip install "snowflake-snowpark-python[modin]"
Create a session and use the Snowpark Python API
from snowflake.snowpark import Session
connection_parameters = {
"account": "<your snowflake account>",
"user": "<your snowflake user>",
"password": "<your snowflake password>",
"role": "<snowflake user role>",
"warehouse": "<snowflake warehouse>",
"database": "<snowflake database>",
"schema": "<snowflake schema>"
}
session = Session.builder.configs(connection_parameters).create()
# Create a Snowpark dataframe from input data
df = session.create_dataframe([[1, 2], [3, 4]], schema=["a", "b"])
df = df.filter(df.a > 1)
result = df.collect()
df.show()
# -------------
# |"A" |"B" |
# -------------
# |3 |4 |
# -------------
Create a session and use the Snowpark pandas API
import modin.pandas as pd
import snowflake.snowpark.modin.plugin
from snowflake.snowpark import Session
CONNECTION_PARAMETERS = {
'account': '<myaccount>',
'user': '<myuser>',
'password': '<mypassword>',
'role': '<myrole>',
'database': '<mydatabase>',
'schema': '<myschema>',
'warehouse': '<mywarehouse>',
}
session = Session.builder.configs(CONNECTION_PARAMETERS).create()
# Create a Snowpark pandas dataframe from input data
df = pd.DataFrame([['a', 2.0, 1],['b', 4.0, 2],['c', 6.0, None]], columns=["COL_STR", "COL_FLOAT", "COL_INT"])
df
# COL_STR COL_FLOAT COL_INT
# 0 a 2.0 1.0
# 1 b 4.0 2.0
# 2 c 6.0 NaN
df.shape
# (3, 3)
df.head(2)
# COL_STR COL_FLOAT COL_INT
# 0 a 2.0 1
# 1 b 4.0 2
df.dropna(subset=["COL_INT"], inplace=True)
df
# COL_STR COL_FLOAT COL_INT
# 0 a 2.0 1
# 1 b 4.0 2
df.shape
# (2, 3)
df.head(2)
# COL_STR COL_FLOAT COL_INT
# 0 a 2.0 1
# 1 b 4.0 2
# Save the result back to Snowflake with a row_pos column.
df.reset_index(drop=True).to_snowflake('pandas_test2', index=True, index_label=['row_pos'])
Samples
The Snowpark Python developer guide, Snowpark Python API references, Snowpark pandas developer guide, and Snowpark pandas api references have basic sample code. Snowflake-Labs has more curated demos.
Logging
Configure logging level for snowflake.snowpark
for Snowpark Python API logs.
Snowpark uses the Snowflake Python Connector.
So you may also want to configure the logging level for snowflake.connector
when the error is in the Python Connector.
For instance,
import logging
for logger_name in ('snowflake.snowpark', 'snowflake.connector'):
logger = logging.getLogger(logger_name)
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
ch = logging.StreamHandler()
ch.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
ch.setFormatter(logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(threadName)s %(filename)s:%(lineno)d - %(funcName)s() - %(levelname)s - %(message)s'))
logger.addHandler(ch)
Reading and writing to pandas DataFrame
Snowpark Python API supports reading from and writing to a pandas DataFrame via the to_pandas and write_pandas commands.
To use these operations, ensure that pandas is installed in the same environment. You can install pandas alongside Snowpark Python by executing the following command:
pip install "snowflake-snowpark-python[pandas]"
Once pandas is installed, you can convert between a Snowpark DataFrame and pandas DataFrame as follows:
df = session.create_dataframe([[1, 2], [3, 4]], schema=["a", "b"])
# Convert Snowpark DataFrame to pandas DataFrame
pandas_df = df.to_pandas()
# Write pandas DataFrame to a Snowflake table and return Snowpark DataFrame
snowpark_df = session.write_pandas(pandas_df, "new_table", auto_create_table=True)
Snowpark pandas API also supports writing to pandas:
import modin.pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame([[1, 2], [3, 4]], columns=["a", "b"])
# Convert Snowpark pandas DataFrame to pandas DataFrame
pandas_df = df.to_pandas()
Note that the above Snowpark pandas commands will work if Snowpark is installed with the [modin]
option, the additional [pandas]
installation is not required.

1.24.0 (2024-10-28)
Snowpark Python API Updates
New Features
- Updated
Session
class to be thread-safe. This allows concurrent DataFrame transformations, DataFrame actions, UDF and stored procedure registration, and concurrent file uploads when using the sameSession
object.- The feature is disabled by default and can be enabled by setting
FEATURE_THREAD_SAFE_PYTHON_SESSION
toTrue
for account. - Updating session configurations, like changing database or schema, when multiple threads are using the session may lead to unexpected behavior.
- When enabled, some internally created temporary table names returned from
DataFrame.queries
API are not deterministic, and may be different when DataFrame actions are executed. This does not affect explicit user-created temporary tables.
- The feature is disabled by default and can be enabled by setting
- Added support for 'Service' domain to
session.lineage.trace
API. - Added support for
copy_grants
parameter when registering UDxF and stored procedures. - Added support for the following methods in
DataFrameWriter
to support daisy-chaining:option
options
partition_by
- Added support for
snowflake_cortex_summarize
.
Improvements
- Improved the following new capability for function
snowflake.snowpark.functions.array_remove
it is now possible to use in python. - Disables sql simplification when sort is performed after limit.
- Previously,
df.sort().limit()
anddf.limit().sort()
generates the same query with sort in front of limit. Now,df.limit().sort()
will generate query that readsdf.limit().sort()
. - Improve performance of generated query for
df.limit().sort()
, because limit stops table scanning as soon as the number of records is satisfied.
- Previously,
- Added a client side error message for when an invalid stage location is passed to DataFrame read functions.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a bug where the automatic cleanup of temporary tables could interfere with the results of async query execution.
- Fixed a bug in
DataFrame.analytics.time_series_agg
function to handle multiple data points in same sliding interval. - Fixed a bug that created inconsistent casing in field names of structured objects in iceberg schemas.
Deprecations
- Deprecated warnings will be triggered when using snowpark-python with Python 3.8. For more details, please refer to https://docs.snowflake.com/en/developer-guide/python-runtime-support-policy.

,DataFrame
,Series.dt
, andDatetimeIndex
to specify the supported timezone formats. - Added additional kwargs support for

NotImplementedError
. - Fixed a bug where
DataFrame.shift()
on axis=0 and axis=1 would fail to propagate timedelta types. DataFrame.abs()
,DataFrame.__neg__()
,DataFrame.stack()
, andDataFrame.unstack()
now raiseNotImplementedError
for timedelta inputs instead of failing to propagate timedelta types.

to avoid making metadata queries if the types have been cached locally. - Improved
pd.to_datetime
to handle all local input cases. - Create a lazy index from another lazy index without pulling data to client.
- Raised
NotImplementedError
for Index bitwise operators. - Display a more clear error message when

values for the "extra" elements. Otherwise, the extra values in the provided index are ignored. - Properly raise
NotImplementedError
when ambiguous/nonexistent are non-string inceil
/floor
/round
.

- Added the
Bug Fixes
-
Fixed a bug in
DataFrame.na.fill
that caused Boolean values to erroneously override integer values. -
Fixed a bug in
Session.create_dataframe
where the Snowpark DataFrames created using pandas DataFrames were not inferring the type for timestamp columns correctly. The behavior is as follows:- Earlier timestamp columns without a timezone would be converted to nanosecond epochs and inferred as
LongType()
, but will now be correctly maintained as timestamp values and be inferred asTimestampType(TimestampTimeZone.NTZ)
. - Earlier timestamp columns with a timezone would be inferred as
TimestampType(TimestampTimeZone.NTZ)
and loose timezone information but will now be correctly inferred asTimestampType(TimestampTimeZone.LTZ)
and timezone information is retained correctly. - Set session parameter
PYTHON_SNOWPARK_USE_LOGICAL_TYPE_FOR_CREATE_DATAFRAME
to revert back to old behavior. It is recommended that you update your code to align with correct behavior because the parameter will be removed in the future.
- Earlier timestamp columns without a timezone would be converted to nanosecond epochs and inferred as
-
Fixed a bug that
DataFrame.to_pandas
gets decimal type when scale is not 0, and creates an object dtype inpandas
. Instead, we cast the value to a float64 type. -
Fixed bugs that wrongly flattened the generated SQL when one of the following happens:
DataFrame.filter()
is called afterDataFrame.sort().limit()
.DataFrame.sort()
orfilter()
is called on a DataFrame that already has a window function or sequence-dependent data generator column. For instance,df.select("a", seq1().alias("b")).select("a", "b").sort("a")
won't flatten the sort clause anymore.- a window or sequence-dependent data generator column is used after
DataFrame.limit()
. For instance,df.limit(10).select(row_number().over())
won't flatten the limit and select in the generated SQL.
-
Fixed a bug where aliasing a DataFrame column raised an error when the DataFame was copied from another DataFrame with an aliased column. For instance,
df = df.select(col("a").alias("b")) df = copy(df) df.select(col("b").alias("c")) # threw an error. Now it's fixed.
-
Fixed a bug in
Session.create_dataframe
that the non-nullable field in a schema is not respected for boolean type. Note that this fix is only effective when the user has the privilege to create a temp table. -
Fixed a bug in SQL simplifier where non-select statements in
session.sql
dropped a SQL query when used withlimit()
. -
Fixed a bug that raised an exception when session parameter
ERROR_ON_NONDETERMINISTIC_UPDATE
is true.
Behavior Changes (API Compatible)
- When parsing data types during a
to_pandas
operation, we rely on GS precision value to fix precision issues for large integer values. This may affect users where a column that was earlier returned asint8
gets returned asint64
. Users can fix this by explicitly specifying precision values for their return column. - Aligned behavior for
Session.call
in case of table stored procedures where runningSession.call
would not trigger stored procedure unless acollect()
operation was performed. StoredProcedureRegistration
will now automatically addsnowflake-snowpark-python
as a package dependency. The added dependency will be on the client's local version of the library and an error is thrown if the server cannot support that version.

Improvements
- The session parameter
PYTHON_SNOWPARK_USE_SQL_SIMPLIFIER
isTrue
after Snowflake 7.3 was released. In snowpark-python,session.sql_simplifier_enabled
reads the value ofPYTHON_SNOWPARK_USE_SQL_SIMPLIFIER
by default, meaning that the SQL simplfier is enabled by default after the Snowflake 7.3 release. To turn this off, setPYTHON_SNOWPARK_USE_SQL_SIMPLIFIER
in Snowflake toFalse

0.4.0 (2022-02-15)
New Features
- You can now specify which Anaconda packages to use when defining UDFs.
- Added
add_packages()
,get_packages()
,clear_packages()
, andremove_package()
, to classSession
. - Added
add_requirements()
toSession
so you can use a requirements file to specify which packages this session will use. - Added parameter
packages
to functionsnowflake.snowpark.functions.udf()
and methodUserDefinedFunction.register()
to indicate UDF-level Anaconda package dependencies when creating a UDF. - Added parameter
imports

andUserDefinedFunction.register()
to specify UDF-level code imports.
- Added
- Added a parameter
session
to functionudf()
andUserDefinedFunction.register()
so you can specify which session to use to create a UDF if you have multiple sessions. - Added types
Geography
andVariant
tosnowflake.snowpark.types
to be used as type hints for Geography and Variant data when defining a UDF. - Added support for Geography geoJSON data.
- Added
Table
, a subclass ofDataFrame
for table operations:- Methods
update
anddelete
update and delete rows of a table in Snowflake. - Method
merge
merges data from aDataFrame
to aTable
. - Override method
DataFrame.sample()
with an additional parameterseed
, which works on tables but not on view and sub-queries.
- Methods
- Added
DataFrame.to_local_iterator()
andDataFrame.to_pandas_batches()
to allow getting results from an iterator when the result set returned from the Snowflake database is too large. - Added
DataFrame.cache_result()
for caching the operations performed on aDataFrame
in a temporary table. Subsequent operations on the originalDataFrame
have no effect on the cached resultDataFrame
. - Added property
DataFrame.queries

. - Added
Session.query_history()
as a context manager to track SQL queries executed on a session, including all SQL queries to evaluateDataFrame
s created from a session. Both query ID and query text are recorded. - You can now create a

,degrees()
,radians()
,round()
,trunc()
, andfactorial()
tosnowflake.snowflake.functions
. - Added an optional argument
ignore_nulls
in functionlead()
andlag()
. - The
condition
parameter of functionwhen()
andiff()
now accepts SQL expressions.
Improvements
- All function and method names have been renamed to use the snake case naming style, which is more Pythonic. For convenience, some camel case names are kept as aliases to the snake case APIs. It is recommended to use the snake case APIs.
- Deprecated these methods on class
Session
and replaced them with their snake case equivalents:getImports()
,addImports()
,removeImport()
,clearImports()
,getSessionStage()
,getDefaultSchema()
,getDefaultSchema()
,getCurrentDatabase()
,getFullyQualifiedCurrentSchema()
. - Deprecated these methods on class
DataFrame
and replaced them with their snake case equivalents:groupingByGroupingSets()
,naturalJoin()
,withColumns()
,joinTableFunction()
.
- Deprecated these methods on class
- Property
DataFrame.columns
is now consistent withDataFrame.schema.names
and the Snowflake databaseIdentifier Requirements
. Column.__bool__()
now raises aTypeError
. This will ban the use of logical operatorsand
,or
,not
onColumn
object, for instancecol("a") > 1 and col("b") > 2
will raise theTypeError
. Use(col("a") > 1) & (col("b") > 2)
instead.- Changed
PutResult
andGetResult
to subclassNamedTuple
. - Fixed a bug which raised an error when the local path or stage location has a space or other special characters.
- Changed
DataFrame.describe()
so that non-numeric and non-string columns are ignored instead of raising an exception.
Dependency updates
- Updated
snowflake-connector-python
to 2.7.4.
0.3.0 (2022-01-09)
New Features
- Added
Column.isin()
, with an aliasColumn.in_()
. - Added
Column.try_cast()
, which is a special version ofcast()
. It tries to cast a string expression to other types and returnsnull
if the cast is not possible. - Added
Column.startswith()
andColumn.substr()
to process string columns. Column.cast()
now also accepts astr
value to indicate the cast type in addition to aDataType
instance.- Added
DataFrame.describe()
to summarize stats of aDataFrame
. - Added
DataFrame.explain()
to print the query plan of aDataFrame
. DataFrame.filter()
andDataFrame.select_expr()
now accepts a sql expression.- Added a new
bool
parametercreate_temp_table
to methodsDataFrame.saveAsTable()
andSession.write_pandas()
to optionally create a temp table. - Added
DataFrame.minus()
andDataFrame.subtract()
as aliases toDataFrame.except_()
. - Added
regexp_replace()
,concat()
,concat_ws()
,to_char()
,current_timestamp()
,current_date()
,current_time()
,months_between()
,cast()
,try_cast()
,greatest()
,least()
, andhash()
to modulesnowflake.snowpark.functions
.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where
Session.createDataFrame(pandas_df)
andSession.write_pandas(pandas_df)
raise an exception when thepandas DataFrame
has spaces in the column name. DataFrame.copy_into_table()
sometimes prints anerror
level log entry while it actually works. It's fixed now.- Fixed an API docs issue where some
DataFrame
APIs are missing from the docs.
Dependency updates
- Update
snowflake-connector-python
to 2.7.2, which upgradespyarrow
dependency to 6.0.x. Refer to the python connector 2.7.2 release notes for more details.
0.2.0 (2021-12-02)
New Features
- Updated the
Session.createDataFrame()
method for creating aDataFrame
from a pandas DataFrame. - Added the
Session.write_pandas()
method for writing apandas DataFrame
to a table in Snowflake and getting aSnowpark DataFrame
object back. - Added new classes and methods for calling window functions.
- Added the new functions
cume_dist()
, to find the cumulative distribution of a value with regard to other values within a window partition, androw_number()
, which returns a unique row number for each row within a window partition. - Added functions for computing statistics for DataFrames in the
DataFrameStatFunctions
class. - Added functions for handling missing values in a DataFrame in the
DataFrameNaFunctions
class. - Added new methods
rollup()
,cube()
, andpivot()
to theDataFrame
class. - Added the
GroupingSets
class, which you can use with the DataFrame groupByGroupingSets method to perform a SQL GROUP BY GROUPING SETS. - Added the new
FileOperation(session)
class that you can use to upload and download files to and from a stage. - Added the
DataFrame.copy_into_table()
method for loading data from files in a stage into a table. - In CASE expressions, the functions
when()
andotherwise()
now accept Python types in addition toColumn
objects. - When you register a UDF you can now optionally set the
replace
parameter toTrue
to overwrite an existing UDF with the same name.
Improvements
- UDFs are now compressed before they are uploaded to the server. This makes them about 10 times smaller, which can help when you are using large ML model files.
- When the size of a UDF is less than 8196 bytes, it will be uploaded as in-line code instead of uploaded to a stage.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where the statement
df.select(when(col("a") == 1, 4).otherwise(col("a"))), [Row(4), Row(2), Row(3)]
raised an exception. - Fixed an issue where
df.toPandas()
raised an exception when a DataFrame was created from large local data.
