Now a key pair must be generated and uploaded to Snowflake. This will be used for authentication by the IoT Bridge for Snowflake application to push data to Snowflake via the Snowflake Streaming API. See this document for details on how to generate this and assign this to a user in your snowflake account: https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/key-pair-auth. Step 6 (Configuring the Snowflake Client to User Key Pair Authentication) in the linked tutorial can be skipped. This tutorial will cover configuring IoT Bridge for Snowflake with the generated key. Also note the generated key MUST NOT be encrypted. Attach the public key to the user that we just created for Snowflake ingest purposes.

IoT Bridge Setup

With AWS IoT and Snowflake now properly provisioned and IBSNOW installed, IBSNOW must be configured. To configure it, you must be able to access it via SSH. Ensure you can access it via the Access Instructions here. Once you can access it, you must copy the three certificate files you captured when provisioning the AWS IoT Core thing. Again, these files are:

...

Now copy the three files to the /opt/ibsnow/conf/certs directory. To do this, first copy the files into the tmp folder of the EC2 instance using this command from your local:

Next, SSH into the instance:

Finally, move the files from the tmp folder into the destination folder by using this command:

sudo mv /tmp/filename /opt/ibsnow/conf/certs/

When done, it should look similar to what is shown below.
