The Dremio ODBC Mac driver allows Mac-based applications to work with Dremio. The following information installs the driver and creates a default system DSN. Navigate to the Dremio ODBC Mac driver download site. Click on Download for MacOS. Navigate to driver download location (usually the Downloads folder). ODBCManager.dmg is the most frequent filename for this program's installer. This free Mac application is an intellectual property of Actual Technologies LLC. The size of the latest setup package available for download is 743 KB. The most popular version among the application users is 1.0. Replaces ODBC Administrator omitted from Snow Leopard.

These drivers are fully functioning versions. You will be able to install the drivers and connect to your database. Without a license key, the driverwill only return the first 3 rows from any query. Once you have purchased a license key, allrows will be returned from your queries.

Now compatible with Mac OS Big Sur on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.

Note: if you previously installed a license key for version 4.2 or earlier, you will need to get a new key from our website before installing this version.You can upgrade your older license keys to version 5.0 by visting our upgrade center.

Actual ODBC Pack (for Mac OS - compatible with MacOS 11 Big Sur)

The Actual ODBC Pack installs the latest version of several Actual Technologies ODBC drivers. The included drivers and their version numbers are listed below:

Actual SQL Server 5.1.3 (Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase)
Actual Open Source Databases 5.1.3 (MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite)
Actual Oracle 5.1.3
Actual Access 5.1.3 (.mdb, .accdb, .xls, .csv and .txt files)

Actual ESS Adapter 1.5.0

This driver allows you to use FileMaker 'External SQL Sources' (ESS) with Postgres and DB2 databases. It requires a native ODBC driver to be installed for the Postgres or DB2 database,and then presents that driver to FileMaker in a format that it can recognize for ESS.

If you have any questions during your evaluation of the drivers, please visit our support page, or e-mail us atsupport@actualtech.com.

Similar to Windows, macOS utilizes named data sources (DSNs) for connecting ODBC-based client applications to Snowflake.

In this Topic:

Prerequisites¶

Operating System¶

For a list of the operating systems supported by Snowflake clients, see Operating System Support.

iODBC¶

The Snowflake ODBC driver for Mac requires iODBC, which is available for download from:

To install iODBC:

After downloading iODBC, double-click on the downloaded .dmg file.
Double-click on the installer file, iODBC-SDK.pkg, and follow the prompts.

Note

iODBC provides a GUI administrator tool for configuring drivers and DSNs; however, this tool has not been tested for use with Snowflake and, therefore, should not be used to create or manage DSNs. Use ODBC Manager instead.

ODBC Manager — Optional/Recommended¶

ODBC Manager is a GUI tool for configuring drivers and creating/managing DSNs. The tool is optional because you can also create DSNs manually by editing the appropriate odbc.ini file. ODBC Manager is available from:

To install ODBC Manager:

After downloading ODBC Manager, double-click on the downloaded .dmg file.
Double-click on the installer file, ODBCManager.pkg, and follow the prompts.

The installer installs ODBC Manager in the ~/Applications/Utilities directory.

Step 1: Install the ODBC Driver¶

To install the Snowflake ODBC driver for macOS:

If you haven’t already downloaded the driver, download it now. For details, see Downloading the ODBC Driver.
Double-click on the downloaded .dmg file, snowflake_odbc_mac-<version>.dmg.
Double-click on the installer file, snowflakeODBC_<version>.pkg, and follow the prompts.
You will likely be prompted for the administrator/sudo password for the machine on which you are installing the driver.

If you choose the default directory when prompted, the installer installs the ODBC driver files in the following directories:

Step 2: Configure the ODBC Driver¶

To configure the ODBC driver for macOS, create one or more data source (DSNs), which are stored in the following files, depending on the type of DSN you create:

User DSNs: ~/Library/ODBC/odbc.ini
System DSNs: /Library/ODBC/odbc.ini

To create a DSN, either use ODBC Manager or edit the appropriate odbc.ini file.

Creating a DSN Using ODBC Manager¶

To create a DSN in ODBC Manager:

Start ODBC Manager.
Click on User DSN or System DSN.
Click the Add button.
Select the driver to use (Snowflake) and click OK.
Enter the name of the DSN and optionally a description.
Create a Keyword/Value pair for each DSN parameter:
1. Click Add to create a Keyword/Value pair.
2. Select Keyword and replace it with the parameter name.
3. Select Value and replace it with the value for the parameter.
Repeat this process for each parameter. For details about the parameters that can be set for each DSN, see ODBC Configuration and Connection Parameters.
Click OK to create the DSN.

If you are creating the first user or system DSN for the ODBC driver, ODBC Manager creates the odbc.ini file in the corresponding directory for the type of DSN you are creating. If you are creating additional DSNs, ODBC Manageradds entries for each DSN to the existing odbc.ini file.

Creating a DSN by Adding an Entry in the `odbc.ini` File¶

If a user or system DSN has already been created for the driver, add the new entry to the odbc.ini file that already exists in the corresponding directory for the type of DSN you are creating. If you are creating the first DSNfor the driver, you must manually create the odbc.ini file and add the entry to the file.

For each DSN, specify:

DSN name and driver name (Snowflake), in the form of <dsn_name>=<driver_name>.
Directory path and name of the driver file, in the form of Driver=/opt/snowflake/snowflakeodbc/lib/universal/libSnowflake.dylib.
Connection parameters, such as server and uid (user login name). Any connection parameters you add to the DSN do not need to be specified in the ODBC connect string.
Any additional parameters, such as default role, database, and warehouse.

Parameters are specified in the form of <parameter_name>=<value>. For details about the parameters that can be set for each DSN, see ODBC Configuration and Connection Parameters.

The following example illustrates an odbc.ini file that configures two data sources that use different forms of anaccount identifier in the server URL:

testodbc1 uses an account identifier that uses anaccount identifier that specifies the account myaccount in the organizationmyorganization.
testodbc2 uses the account locatorxy12345 as the account identifier.
Note that testodbc2 uses an account in the AWS US West (Oregon) region. If the account is in a different region or ifthe account uses a different cloud provider, you need tospecify additional segments after the account locator.

Note the following:

Both testodbc1 and testodbc2 have default roles.
testodbc2 also has a default database and warehouse.

Step 3: Test the ODBC Driver¶

You can use the iodbctest command line utility provided with iODBC to test the DSNs you create.

When prompted for the ODBC connect string, enter the required connection parameters (DSN name, server, user login name, and password), as well as any other parameters that you would like to enter as part of the connect string. Theconnect string takes parameters in the form of <parameter_name>=<value>, e.g. dsn=testodbc2, with each parameter separated by a semi-colon (;) and no blank spaces. For the list of supported parameters, seeODBC Configuration and Connection Parameters.
