Limitations with Notebooks¶

This topic describes unsupported features and limitations of Snowflake Notebooks.

  • Only one executable ipynb file is permitted within each notebook. Multiple executables are not permitted.

  • You cannot use the GRANT OWNERSHIP or USAGE commands to grant ownership or usage on a notebook to a different role.

  • Streamlit components and widgets, such as slider values, do not retain their state if you refresh the browser window, open the notebook in a new tab, or close and reopen the current tab.

  • UNDROP <object> is not supported for Snowflake Notebooks. After you drop a notebook, it cannot be restored.

  • When you create a notebook from a repository, only the selected notebook is executable. Any other notebooks in the repository can be selected and edited, but they are not executable.

  • Notebooks cannot be created or executed by SNOWFLAKE database roles.

  • Notebooks do not support replication.

  • Renaming a notebook will invalidate the notebook URL.

  • Snowflake Notebooks are hosted in a third-party domain to provide increased security. In Safari, you must enable third-party cookies to allow reconnection to a running notebook after losing a connection. To enable this setting, in Safari select Settings » Privacy, and then clear the Prevent cross-site tracking checkbox.
