Mendix has several options available for users who want to integrate their app with Snowflake in order to create AI-powered and data-driven enterprise applications.
12
+
You can combine the AI capabilities offered by Menidx and Snowflake to enable the development of low-code agentic enterprise solutions. The integration works in both directions, that is, Snowflake Cortext Agents can invoke Mendix business logic, while Mendix AI agents can connect to Snowflake MCP servers.
13
+
14
+
In addition to AI-driven applications, the integration also includes the capability to build data-driven applications. That is, you can use data from Snowflake in your Mendix app with the External Database connector or the Snowflake AI Data connector, as well as ingest your Mendix data into Snowflake by using the Mendix Data Loader.

The [External Database connector](https://marketplace.mendix.com/link/component/219862) is the recommended option that you can use to integrate your Mendix app with Snowflake. It offers a premium developer experience where you can test connections and queries during design time by using a view of all schemas and objects to which you can connect. It makes use of the JDBC protocol and the usage of Python stored procedures in addition to Java.

The External Database connector only supports system-level authentication. It can authenticate in Snowflake by using the username and password of a single Snowflake user. It also offers key-pair authentication with a private key. The connector does not support role-based access control (RBAC) per end user.

The External Database connector has GA support for Snowflake from [Studio Pro 10.12](/releasenotes/studio-pro/10.12/) (Beta versions are available from [Studio Pro 10.10](/releasenotes/studio-pro/10.10/)). Some Cortex functionalities are currently limited when using the External Database connector, but they are on the roadmap.
