AI coding tools are transforming how developers work—83% of enterprises already use AI in software development. But today’s tools were built for general software engineering, not data teams. They typically lack awareness of your data catalog, warehouse environment, and governance posture. For organizations building data pipelines, transformations, and AI agents on Snowflake, that gap leads to lost productivity and fragmented workflows.
Cortex Code is Snowflake’s native AI coding agent, purpose-built for the entire data lifecycle. From data ingestion and engineering to dbt models, machine learning, and agent development, Cortex Code accelerates your work with natural language while staying deeply aware of your enterprise data context—your Snowflake objects, metadata, compute, governance, semantic layers, and query history.
What You’ll Learn in This Hands‑On Lab
In this hands-on lab, you will:
-
Understand prerequisites and access control requirements, including the required database roles for Cortex Code.
-
Use Cortex Code in the Snowflake web UI to explore data, discover catalog objects, and generate SQL using natural language.
-
Install and configure the Cortex Code CLI, including connection setup via browser sync and manual configuration.
By the end of the session, you’ll have Cortex Code fully configured in both the web UI and CLI, ready to accelerate your Snowflake development from day one.
