Comments

Dataedo reads comments from following Snowflake objects:

  • Tables
    • Columns
  • Views
    • Columns
  • Functions

Dataedo does not write comments back to Snowflake at this moment.

Under development

  • Unique constraints names and tables
  • Relations names and tables
  • Splitting function arguments into separate lines

Known limitations

  • Snowflake’s INFORMATION_SCHEMA currently doesn’t contain data on unique constraints and foreign keys columns and Dataedo doesn't import it. We will add this to import once Snowflake adds it to the metadata.
  • There’s a similar limitation with object dependencies.
