The Data Exchange feature is not automatically enabled for all Snowflake accounts. Instead, enabling this capability—particularly for private exchanges—typically requires submitting a request toSnowflake Support. Snowflake evaluates account type, region, and compliance requirements before enabling the Data Exchange functionality. Snowflake administrators cannot independently enable this through Snowsight, nor is there a SQL command available to turn it on. Once activated, account administrators can create private exchanges, manage listings, and define which Snowflake accounts can participate. This activation step ensures secure, intentional use of data-sharing capabilities at an account level.
