Managing self-service reporting users

Roles and permissions

The following roles can manage self-service reporting users:

  • Administrators

When you create a Snowflake data warehouse through Hyperproof you can add more users to allow each user to have their own credentials. If a user leaves your organization, you can delete them to remove access to the data warehouse. Individual users can reset their data warehouse passwords as needed.

To locate the Snowflake connection information and list of users go to Settings > Self-service reporting. On this page, you can find the Snowflake server information used to log in to Snowflake and the name of your warehouse.
