How can I write data from a Snowpark DataFrame to a Snowflake table?
There are a few ways to write data from a Snowpark DataFrame to a Snowflake table.
- Using the writeTable() method: This method is available in the Snowpark API for each supported programming language. It takes a few parameters, such as the name of the table and the database in which the table resides.
- Using the save() method: This method is also available in the Snowpark API for each supported programming language. It takes a few parameters, such as the path to the file where the data will be saved.
- Using the Snowpark SparkSession: If you are using Snowpark with Spark, you can write data from a Snowpark DataFrame to a Snowflake table by using the Snowpark SparkSession. This class provides a number of convenience methods for writing data to Snowflake tables.
Here is an example of how to write data from a Snowpark DataFrame to a Snowflake table using the writeTable() method in Python:
Python
from snowflake.snowpark import Session
from snowflake.snowpark import DataFrame
session = Session.builder().account("myaccount").user("myuser").password("mypassword").build()
df = session.readTable("mytable", "mydatabase")
df.writeTable("mynewtable", "mydatabase")

Here is an example of how to write data from a Snowpark DataFrame to a Snowflake table using the Snowpark SparkSession in Scala:
Scala
import com.snowflake.snowpark._
import com.snowflake.snowpark.spark._
val session = SnowparkSession.builder()
.account("myaccount")
.user("myuser")
.password("mypassword")
.build()
val df = session.readTable("mytable", "mydatabase")
df.writeTable("mynewtable", "mydatabase")
Use code with caution.
Once you have written data to a Snowflake table, you can query the table using SQL or use it in other Snowpark DataFrames.
