Creating a worksheet in the Snowflake GUI (Graphical User Interface) is a straightforward process that allows you to run SQL queries and interact with your data.
Here's how you can create a worksheet and rename it:

Login to Snowflake:
Access the Snowflake web interface by logging into your Snowflake account.
Navigate to Worksheets:
In the left sidebar, you'll find a menu. Click on "Worksheet" under the "SQL" section.
Open a New Worksheet:
Once you're in the "Worksheet" section, you can see a list of existing worksheets if any. To create a new worksheet, click the "New Worksheet" button.
Write and Execute SQL:
In the newly opened worksheet, you'll find an SQL editor where you can write your SQL queries. Write your query and click the "Run" button (usually represented by a play icon) to execute the query.
Renaming a Worksheet:
Worksheet Tabs:
In the top area of the worksheet interface, you'll see tabs representing each open worksheet. The default name for a new worksheet is often "Worksheet 1" or similar.
Right-Click the Tab:
To rename the worksheet, right-click on the tab of the worksheet you want to rename. This action will typically open a context menu.
Enter New Name:
After selecting "Rename," the tab name will become editable. Enter the desired name for the worksheet.
Confirm the Name:
Press "Enter" or click outside the renamed area to confirm the new name for the worksheet. The tab should now display the new name you entered.
Note: Keep in mind that specific features and layout might vary slightly depending on updates and the version of the Snowflake user interface you are using. The steps provided should be generally applicable to most versions of Snowflake's web interface.
Remember that worksheets are useful for running queries and interacting with your data, but they are typically not meant for long-term storage of queries or results. For more organized storage and sharing of SQL scripts and results, consider using Snowflake's scripts, notebooks, or other relevant features based on your use case.
