Explorer — my access

In the explorer, Spyglass users now see:

  1. Which privileges they have on the selected Snowflake object.

  2. If a selected role is assigned to their Snowflake user.

  3. If a selected user is their Snowflake user.

  4. A filtered explorer tree with only objects that their user has privileges on.

These features are only supported for users authenticated through SSO. "Privileges" refers to the flattened privileges of the user, which includes indirect grants via role inheritance.

Explorer — add a "star" to any object

Users can now "star" any database, schema, table, or other object that they would like to access quickly later. Quick links to starred objects now appear on the main explorer page in the "Starred objects" section.

Starred objects are unique to each Spyglass user.

User experience

  • Fixed an issue that could occur when reverting certain kinds of access requests where the original access request would only partially be reversed.

  • Users are now correctly redirected to their intended destination after a successful login, for example if they clicked an email link and hadn't yet authenticated. Previously, they were redirected to the home page by default.

  • Snowflake future grants config now allows setting a "Excluded objects regular expression". See Snowflake future grants docs for more info.
