Begin by exporting the data you need from your Close account. Log in to Close, navigate to the relevant section (such as Leads, Contacts, or Activities), and use the export feature to download your data as a CSV file. Ensure you have the necessary permissions to export data.
Once you have downloaded the CSV file(s), open them using a spreadsheet application like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets. Clean and format the data as needed, ensuring that the column headers and data types align with what you plan to import into Snowflake. Remove any unnecessary columns and ensure that the data is free of errors or discrepancies.
Log into your Snowflake account and set up the environment for data import. This involves creating the necessary database, schema, and tables that will store the imported data. Define the table structures based on the columns and data types present in your CSV files.
Create an internal stage in Snowflake to temporarily store the CSV files before loading them into tables. Use the following SQL command in Snowflake:
```sql
CREATE STAGE my_stage
FILE_FORMAT = (TYPE = 'CSV' FIELD_OPTIONALLY_ENCLOSED_BY = '"');
```
This ensures that the CSV files are correctly recognized and processed by Snowflake.
Use the Snowflake web interface or a command-line tool like SnowSQL to upload your CSV files to the stage you created. If using SnowSQL, the command would be:
```shell
snowsql -q "PUT file://path/to/your/file.csv @my_stage"
```
Replace `path/to/your/file.csv` with the actual path to your CSV file.
With the CSV files in the stage, you can now load them into the relevant tables in your Snowflake database. Use the `COPY INTO` command as shown below:
```sql
COPY INTO my_database.my_schema.my_table
FROM @my_stage/file.csv
FILE_FORMAT = (TYPE = 'CSV' FIELD_OPTIONALLY_ENCLOSED_BY = '"');
```
Ensure that the table names and file paths match your setup.
After loading the data, verify its integrity by running queries to check for completeness and accuracy. Compare a sample of the imported data against the original CSV files to ensure that no data was lost or altered during the import process. Make any necessary adjustments by re-importing specific data, if needed.
By following these steps, you can successfully move your data from Close to Snowflake without using third-party connectors or integrations.

What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
