## Verify connection

Once connected, try one of these questions in your AI tool:

> What permissions do I need to set up the Snowflake connector in Atlan?

The tool calls `get_preflight_requirements` and returns the exact permissions from the Snowflake preflight page—not a generic answer.

> How do I set up dbt in Atlan?

The tool calls `get_feature_guide` to load the dbt connector index, then `get_page` to retrieve specific setup steps.

> What is a Persona in Atlan?

The tool calls `get_concept` and returns Atlan's own definition of Persona, not a generic data catalog interpretation.

If your tool is calling these tools and returning specific answers, the connection is working.
