Frequently asked questions

Can a non-ACCOUNTADMIN install a Snowflake Native App?

No — by default, only ACCOUNTADMIN can install Native Apps. Account admins can grant the CREATE APPLICATION privilege to other roles to allow broader installation access.

How do I check the status of a Native App installation?

Run SHOW APPLICATIONS to see all installed apps and their status. A FAILED status means the installation did not complete — drop and reinstall.
