unable to install dplyr.snowflakedb and then run src_snowflakedb #29

I receive the below message. Error in packageVersion("dplyr.snowflakedb") : there is no package called ‘dplyr.snowflakedb’

When I try: install.packages("dplyr","snowflakedb") I get the warning of: package ‘dplyr.snowflakedb’ is not available (for R version 3.6.0)

Do i need to uninstall R version 3.6 and instead install 3.5.3? I'm unsure how to move forward on this, eager to start using r-studio with the data stored in our snowflake db. thank you!

i believe i have to install the dplyr.snowflake from github; but i am now stuck on this error.

Hey, it's a late answer, but installing with devtools::install_github("snowflakedb/dplyr-snowflakedb") according to the install instructions works. But the repository is stale and the connection function needs some maintenance (the valid regions e.g. are out of date). Also the account parameter is not working according to the snowflake documentation which requires the region inside the account name (like 'xxxxxx.west-europe.azure')
