+# Copy Data from Snowflake to Azure
+
+o copy data from Snowflake into Azure Blob Storage without creating a storage integration, you can create an external stage with Azure credentials. Here's how you can do it:
+
+1. **Create the external stage**
+2. **Copy data into the Azure Blob Storage**
+
+Here’s the process step-by-step:
+
+1. **Create the external stage:**
+
+Replace `your-account-name`, `your-container-name`, `your-path`, and `your-azure-sas-token` with your actual Azure account name, container name, path, and the SAS token, respectively.
+
+```sql
+CREATE OR REPLACE STAGE my_azure_stage
+URL = 'azure://your-account-name.blob.core.windows.net/your-container-name/your-path/'
+CREDENTIALS = (
+  AZURE_SAS_TOKEN = 'your-azure-sas-token'
+);
+```
+
+2. **Copy data into the Azure Blob Storage:**
+
+Replace `your-file-name` with the desired file name in the Azure Blob Storage and `your_table` with the name of the table you want to export.
+
+```sql
+COPY INTO @my_azure_stage/your-file-name
+FROM your_table
+FILE_FORMAT = (TYPE = CSV);
+```
+
+This approach for both GCP and Azure allows you to copy data from Snowflake to your cloud storage without creating a storage integration.

+# Copy Data from Snowflake to GCP
+
+To copy data from Snowflake into Google Cloud Storage (GCS) without creating a storage integration, you can create an external stage with GCP credentials. Here's how you can do it:
+
+1. **Create the external stage**
+2. **Copy data into the GCS bucket**
+
+Here’s the process step-by-step:
+
+1. **Create the external stage:**
+
+Replace `your-bucket-name`, `your-path`, and `your-gcp-keyfile-json-string` with your actual GCS bucket name, path, and the contents of your GCP key file (in JSON format), respectively.
+
+```sql
+CREATE OR REPLACE STAGE my_gcs_stage
+URL = 'gcs://your-bucket-name/your-path/'
+CREDENTIALS = (
+  GCP_KEYFILE = 'your-gcp-keyfile-json-string'
+);
+```
+
+2. **Copy data into the GCS bucket:**
+
+Replace `your-file-name` with the desired file name in the GCS bucket and `your_table` with the name of the table you want to export.
+
+```sql
+COPY INTO @my_gcs_stage/your-file-name
+FROM your_table
+FILE_FORMAT = (TYPE = CSV);
+```
