Enabling key-pair authentication
To use key-pair authentication, you will want to generate an RSA key pair.Then upload the public key to SnowflakeOnce this is done, provide us the private key to authenticate with.
Advanced features
Snowflake turbo mode
Snowflake turbo mode allows you to switch between warehouse sizes based on your data volume and lag.
How it works
Monitoring
Every 10 minutes, Artie queries the pipeline’s current ingestion latency (in minutes) and pending row count.
Scale up
If both the latency and row backlog exceed their thresholds, the pipeline is switched to the configured turbo warehouse and you are notified.
Configuration
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Turbo Warehouse | (required) | The larger Snowflake warehouse to use during high-load periods. |
| Latency Threshold | 30 minutes | Ingestion lag must exceed this value (along with the row threshold) to trigger scale-up. |
| Row Threshold | 5,000,000 rows | Pending row count must exceed this value (along with the latency threshold) to trigger scale-up. |
Key behaviors
- Both thresholds must be exceeded simultaneously to activate turbo mode — a spike in only one metric will not trigger a scale-up.
- Scale-down requires 3 consecutive below-threshold checks to avoid flapping between warehouses.
- You will receive a notification whenever turbo mode is activated or deactivated.

Troubleshooting
How should I size my virtual warehouse?
How should I size my virtual warehouse?
To start, We would recommend you to go with a
x-small and decide whether or not you need to scale based off of our Snowflake insights metrics from our Analytics portal.Generally speaking, if your overall query execution time is high, then you may want to scale to a larger instance. If your queued overload time is high, you may want to have more virtual warehouse nodes to increase your parallelizable slots.Why am I not able to query or operate table?
Why am I not able to query or operate table?
Snowflake’s native RBAC makes it so that the account that created the resource is the native owner. To change this, assign the ARTIE service account’s role to your account and you will be able to operate on the table. See the GIF below on how to fix this problem.
