# Step-by-step guides

The articles in this section walk you through installing and using Omnata Sync on Snowflake.

Omnata Sync is a Snowflake Native App, with no outside infrastructure, however you will need to explicitly grant the app access to operate within your Snowflake account. The installation and configuration process requires you to grant access with the correct Snowflake privileges.

The app is architected as follows:

* Omnata Sync Engine - the core product capabilities, UI, etc.
* Omnata \<App> Plugin - the connectors to SaaS App and database endpoints.

You should follow this guide in this order:

1. Install the [Omnata Sync Engine App](https://app.snowflake.com/marketplace/listing/GZSUZ59IJT/omnata-omnata-sync-engine?originTab=provider\&providerName=Omnata\&profileGlobalName=GZSUZ59II4)
2. Install the Omnata Plugin for the endpoint(s) you'll connect to
3. Configure the Omnata Plugin(s)
4. Create a connection
5. Create a sync
