<ComponentMetadata warehouses={["Snowflake"]} unsupportedWarehouses={["Databricks", "Amazon Redshift", "BigQuery"]} componentType="Transformation" connectionInputs="None" connectionOutputs="Unlimited" />

The **Stream Input** transformation component reads selected columns from a Snowflake stream, and makes those columns available to the pipeline.

The stream must already exist in Snowflake. If necessary, you can create a new stream in Snowflake using the [Create Stream](/docs/components/create-stream) component.

For more information on Snowflake streams, read [Introduction to Streams](https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/streams) in the Snowflake documentation.

### Use case

A Snowflake stream object records row-level changes made to tables, including inserts, updates, and deletes, as well as metadata about each change. Using Stream Input, you can ingest these change records into your pipeline and take further actions based on the change data.
