- Python notebooks now support Snowpark and PySpark
-
Both libraries unlock powerful data engineering and analytics workflows directly within your notebooks.
Snowpark empowers you to build scalable data pipelines and run advanced data transformations using Snowflake’s engine.
PySpark provides distributed data processing and machine learning capabilities via Apache Spark, enabling efficient analysis of large datasets.
Learn more about our full set of supported libraries here.
- Python CleanSlate
-
The Python CleanSlate environment is a new execution option in Analyst Studio, available alongside Python 3 and Python Edge. It starts without any pre-installed third-party packages, giving you full control over your environment setup. This is ideal for analysts who want a minimal, dependency-free starting point for custom workflows. Learn more here.
- Customize Report and Dataset refresh with admin-managed schedules
-
Admin-managed schedules allow organization administrators to set maximum schedule frequencies for Report and Dataset refreshes, ensuring that scheduling aligns with system performance, cost-efficiency, and data governance objectives. This feature gives administrators greater oversight and control over how often users can schedule updates. Learn more here.

- Python upgrade
-
We’re upgrading our Python environment from version 3.9 to 3.11. This update brings:
– Performance boost: Faster execution thanks to core optimizations. Better error messages: Clearer tracebacks to speed up debugging. New language features: Includes match statements (structural pattern matching), precise error locations, and improved typing. Deprecations: Some older libraries or syntax may no longer be supported—please review your code for compatibility.
–
+ For most users, no changes are required. If you maintain custom Python code, we recommend testing it in the Python 3.11 environment (Python Edge). Learn more about supported library versions here.
