    !> Caution: Preview Feature This feature is considered a preview feature in the provider, regardless of the state of the resource in Snowflake. We do not guarantee its stability. It will be reworked and marked as a stable feature in future releases. Breaking changes are expected, even without bumping the major version. To use this feature, add the relevant feature name to preview_features_enabled field in the provider configuration. Please always refer to the Getting Help section in our Github repo to best determine how to get help for your questions.

    Example Usage

    Note Instead of using fully_qualified_name, you can reference objects managed outside Terraform by constructing a correct ID, consult identifiers guide.

    import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as snowflake from "@pulumi/snowflake";

const test = new snowflake.Database("test", {name: "things"});
const testSchema = new snowflake.Schema("test_schema", {
    name: "things",
    database: test.name,
});
const testSequence = new snowflake.Sequence("test_sequence", {
    database: test.name,
    schema: testSchema.name,
    name: "thing_counter",
});

    import pulumi

test = snowflake.Database("test", name="things")
test_schema = snowflake.Schema("test_schema",
    name="things",
    database=test.name)
test_sequence = snowflake.Sequence("test_sequence",
    database=test.name,
    schema=test_schema.name,
    name="thing_counter")

    package main

    .schema("string")
    .comment("string")
    .increment(0)
    .name("string")
