SnowPro Core Certification — Question 100

True or False: When Snowflake is configured to use Single Sign-On (SSO), Snowflake receives the usernames and credentials from the SSO service and loads them into the customer's Snowflake account.

Answer options

• A. True
• B. False

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is False because when Snowflake uses SSO, it does not receive or store usernames and passwords from the SSO service. Instead, authentication is handled by the SSO provider, and Snowflake relies on tokens for access without loading any credentials into its system.
