Sharing the Output with Snowflake

Beyond telemetry to support, product improvement, and anything else

The Snowpark Migration Accelerator (SMA) is a tool developed and managed by Snowflake, but it is not a part of the general Snowflake Service. It does collect telemetry in the form of summary information about tool executions, but it does not send specific information about your code.

If you are running the tool offline and want to discuss the results of an assessment with Snowflake, you can share the assessment files output. You can choose to share an individual report from the output, but to share the full results and get a detailed analysis from Snowflake, everything you need is already zipped up .

If you are looking to share with the SMA team the code or reports generated to you locally (for any number of reasons including troubleshooting, improving the snowflake product, or getting a more detailed report/analysis), you can do so in a couple of different ways:

In the tool - through the option in the tool. This will alert the SMA support team. You can then select the information you want to share, attach it, and write a brief description. This can be done if you need support or if you're looking to get more information.
Explicitly (by email) - by sending an email with the file(s) you want to share. This is the most universal way.

Regardless which way you choose, the first few steps are the same. We'll show an example of sharing a specific report such as file.

Run the SMA Assessment (or conversion, if you are looking for help troubleshooting the output code) - You can visit the section for more information on getting up and running with the SMA.
View the Directory with the file(s) you want to share - this will be the Reports directory in this example, but could be the Output directory if you're looking to share some of the output code.
Select the file(s) you want to share - if you are looking to share multiple files, you can add those files to a zip file and share the zip. This would be more beneficial that adding multiple files.
Share the file(s) - Let's look at both ways to do that mentioned above
1. In the tool - use the option. Select it from the help menu, write a brief description of what is being shared, and attach the file(s) you are looking to share.
2. By Email - send the file(s) you have selected to with a description of why you are sending the file(s).

And that's it. As simple as navigating a file system...
