# Snowflake
DETAILS:
**Tier:** Premium, Ultimate
**Offering:** GitLab.com, Self-managed, GitLab Dedicated
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/451328) for audit events in GitLab 17.1.
The Snowflake [GitLab Data Connector](https://app.snowflake.com/marketplace/listing/GZTYZXESENG/gitlab-gitlab-data-connector) pulls data into [Snowflake](https://www.snowflake.com/en/).
In Snowflake you can then view, combine, manipulate, and report on all of the data. The GitLab Data Connector is based on [GitLab REST APIs](../api/rest/index.md) and
requires both Snowflake and GitLab configuration.

1. Sign in to GitLab.
1. Follow steps outlined to [create a personal access token](../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md#create-a-personal-access-token).
1. Create a [external access integration](https://docs.snowflake.com/en/developer-guide/external-network-access/creating-using-external-network-access) in Snowflake. For more information,
see [setup documentation](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/govern/compliance/engineering/snowflake-connector#setup) in the `snowflake-connector` project.
