Connect to the warehouse you already use
Golden Analytics runs entirely inside your cloud data warehouse. Read-only credentials, no ETL, no data copies. Your data stays where it is.
Where your data lives today
All major cloud data warehouses are supported. Connect with a service account and a read-only role. Setup takes under five minutes.
Snowflake
Connect via service account or OAuth. Golden Analytics uses a read-only virtual warehouse. You control which schemas and tables are accessible. Supports Snowflake Cortex for semantic metadata on Pro and Enterprise plans.
BigQuery
Authenticate with a service account JSON key or Workload Identity. Supports project-level and dataset-level access controls. Attribution queries run as batch jobs, using your existing BigQuery slot reservation at no additional cost.
Amazon Redshift
Connect via JDBC or Redshift Serverless endpoint. Supports IAM authentication and database user credentials. Works with both provisioned clusters and Redshift Serverless workgroups. VPC and private subnet configurations supported.
Databricks
Connects to Databricks SQL using a personal access token or service principal. Compatible with all Databricks SQL warehouse types: Classic, Pro, and Serverless. Unity Catalog support included. Works with Delta Lake natively.
Golden Analytics is not a replacement for Tableau or Looker.
BI tools are for exploring and visualizing data you already understand. Golden Analytics answers the question that comes before the dashboard: what changed, and which segment drove the change. Your analysts keep using the tools they know. Golden Analytics handles the attribution layer.
Connect your warehouse in three steps
No infrastructure to deploy. No agents to install. Golden Analytics connects directly to your warehouse endpoint.
Create a read-only service account
In your warehouse, create a user or service account with SELECT privileges on the schemas you want to analyze. For Snowflake, this looks like:
-- Snowflake example
CREATE ROLE golden_reader;
GRANT USAGE ON DATABASE analytics_db TO ROLE golden_reader;
GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA analytics_db.public TO ROLE golden_reader;
GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA analytics_db.public TO ROLE golden_reader;
Enter your connection credentials
In Golden Analytics, go to Settings and add a warehouse connection. Paste your account identifier, role name, and credentials. We test the connection immediately and confirm access before saving.
# Connection fields (Snowflake)
account_identifier: myorg-myaccount
warehouse: ANALYTICS_WH
database: ANALYTICS_DB
schema: PUBLIC
role: GOLDEN_READER
authentication: key_pair # or password
Select your metrics and run attribution
Once connected, Golden Analytics introspects your schema and suggests candidate metric columns. Select a metric, define the time window, and run your first attribution. Results appear in seconds.
