Mass updating dataset sources
Hi,
I have about 100 dataset which are connected to Snowflake. I need to update all 100 to use a new warehouse in Snowflake. The table structure will be the same in the new warehouse and will have the same database name as the old one. Basically I just need to change "xxxx.snowflakexxx.com; warehouse1" to "xxxx.snowflakexxx.com; warehouse2" on all 100 dataset. What would be the easiest way to do this? I tried using UpdateDatasources API but I couldn't get it to work with Snowflake.

Please elaborate. That API call is usually agnostic to the data source it is modifying

I tried to use the Update Datasources API. however, it says on the limitations that only the following data sources are supported: SQL Server, Azure SQL Server, Azure Analysis Services, Azure Synapse, OData, SharePoint, Teradata, and SAP HANA. When I tried using it in snowflake, I get a "Parameter updatedetails is missing or invalid" error. The script works when I tried updating one of my sources in SAP.
This is the update details parameter I'm using:
{
"updateDetails": [
{
"datasourceSelector": {
"datasourceType":"Extension",
"connectionDetails": {
"path":"snowflake URL;OLD_WH","kind":"Snowflake"
}
},
"connectionDetails": {
"path":"snowflake URL;New_WH","kind":"Snowflake"
}
}
]
}
