On Snowflake, all of our listings come with their own unique UDTF (User Defined Table Functions) that is designed to enrich your IP database in the most efficient way possible. You should exclusively use these UDTFs if you are doing bulk IP data enrichment using our database.
Please refer to our IPinfo Snowflake documentation to learn more.

Documentation and Database Schema: IP to Mobile Carrier Database
IPinfo IP address to Mobile Carrier — Snowflake Marketplace
Using the IP_CARRIER
UDTF for our IP to Carrier database
Let’s say your table containing the IP addresses is called LOG
and the column containing the IP address is called IP
. Based on this use, the provided IP_CARRIER
UDTF from the public
namespace of your IPinfo database.
SELECT *
FROM log l
LEFT JOIN TABLE(ipinfo.public.IP_CARRIER(l.ip))
Please note that ipinfo
on the ipinfo.public.IP_CARRIER
can be different for you. It depends on the name you gave to our listing when you purchased it.
The UDTF format is:
SELECT <column_containing_ip_addresses>
FROM <input_table> <table.alias>
JOIN TABLE(ipinfo.public.<UDTF_name>(<table_alias.column_name>))
The UDTF will return the Mobile Carrier related information for IPs which includes:
- Name of the carrier
- Country
- Mobile Country Code
- Mobile Network Code
For invalid IP addresses or IP addresses that aren’t included in our database, the outputted table will not include their information
