Snowflake release 5.40

There will be a new release next week. We're already testing the new version internally. I think that following changes are worth mentioning:

  • session inactivity set to 4hrs in web UI - this might be a problem if you're running a long running query in the UI. Workaround would be to do something in the UI before the 4hrs deadline, any activity prolongs the session for another 4hrs
  • cloned objects retain parameters - if you're working with parameters (like changing data retention) while cloning, your cloned objects will inherit their parent object's parameters

To see all the changes, consult the Snowflake pending behavior change log.
