Begin by exporting the necessary data from Zenefits. Log in to your Zenefits account, navigate to the area containing the data you need (e.g., employee records, payroll data), and use the export function. Zenefits typically allows you to export data in CSV or Excel formats, which are suitable for manual data handling.
After exporting, prepare the data for uploading to Snowflake. Open the CSV or Excel files and clean the data if necessary ”” remove any unwanted columns, fix inconsistent data, and ensure there are no empty rows. Save the cleaned data files back into CSV format, as CSV is preferred for Snowflake ingestion.
If you haven’t already, set up an account with Snowflake and create a data warehouse. Log into your Snowflake account, navigate to the "Warehouses" tab, and create a new warehouse by specifying the required size and configuration that aligns with your data processing needs.
Define a table in Snowflake that matches the structure of your CSV data. Use the Snowflake console to write a `CREATE TABLE` statement that specifies the correct data types for each column. For example, if your CSV file contains employee names and IDs, ensure the table has corresponding columns with appropriate types (e.g., VARCHAR for names, INTEGER for IDs).
Use the Snowflake web interface or SnowSQL command-line tool to upload your CSV files to a Snowflake stage (an intermediate storage location). You can create a stage using the `CREATE STAGE` command and then upload your files with the `PUT` command, which transfers the CSV files from your local machine to the Snowflake stage.
With your data staged, load it into the target table using the `COPY INTO` command. This command reads the CSV file from the stage and inserts the data into the specified table. Ensure to specify any necessary file format options, such as field delimiter or null representation, to match your CSV file's format.
After loading the data, verify that the transfer was successful. Run SQL queries against the Snowflake table to check for data accuracy and completeness. Compare row counts and sample records against the original data in Zenefits to ensure consistency. Address any discrepancies by re-importing or adjusting the data as needed.
By following these steps, you'll be able to manually transfer data from Zenefits to the Snowflake Data Cloud without relying on third-party connectors or integrations.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

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.
