Impact Analysis
Last updated
Impact Tracking extends Woven’s observability by connecting to your Snowflake query history. It helps you see who’s using a dataset, what queries depend on it, and which changes might cause breakages — all automatically.
Turn silent observability into actionable insight. When schemas change, Woven tells you what it means for your data consumers.
🔍 Identify which dashboards or models rely on a table or column
👥 See which users or teams most frequently query it
🚨 Detect risky changes early — before a downstream failure or incident
📈 Build confidence in how data evolves over time
Impact tracking runs continuously in the background — no PR hooks or developer prompts.
To enable impact tracking, connect Woven to your Snowflake account.
The integration requires access to the QUERY_HISTORY and ACCESS_HISTORY views
Woven reads only metadata — never query results or raw data
Permissions can be scoped to a read-only “WOVEN_ROLE”
See Snowflake Connection → for setup details.
Once enabled, you’ll get:
Slack summaries of which models or tables are most queried
Alerts when a schema change affects high-impact assets
