An OAuth security integration is a Snowflake object that enables client application access to Snowflake resources using OAuth 2.0. There are two types of OAuth security integrations in Snowflake: Snowflake OAuth and External OAuth. Snowflake OAuth is Snowflake's built-in OAuth service, while External OAuth allows you to use an external authorization service. It is during the process of creating an OAuth integration that you obtain the client information the driver requires to connect with Snowflake.
See the following topics for details.
Note: For additional details, refer to OAuth in the Snowflake documentation.
