For example, in the AWS US-WEST region deployment of Snowflake, if your URL is "https://abc.snowflakecomputing.com/", then your Snowflake account name is "abc". If you are in any other region (such as AWS US-EAST), then if your URL is "https://xyz.us-east-1.snowflakecomputing.com/", then your account name is "xyz".
What is account name and login name in Snowflake?
User name is the unique identifier for the user in Snowflake. It is not the user's login name (i.e. the name the user enters when logging into Snowflake). Snowflake allows users to have different user names and login names, if desired. You specify a login name for the user on the next screen.
What is an account identifier?
An account number is a unique identifier for each account at a bank or other financial institution that you have. Along with the routing number, this number is used to make payments and deposits.
