The Snowflake SQL REST API is a REST API that you can use to access and update data in a Snowflake database. You can use this API to execute standard queries and most DDL and DML statements. This API can be used to develop custom applications and integrations that can read and write data to Snowflake without installing any additional software on the application server. Option A is not correct because SnowSQL is a command-line client that requires installation and configuration on the application server. Option B is not correct because the Snowpipe REST API is used to load data from cloud storage into Snowflake tables, not to read or write data to Snowflake. Option D is not correct because the Snowflake ODBC driver is a software component that enables applications to connect to Snowflake using the ODBC protocol, which also requires installation and configuration on the application server. References: The answer can be verified from Snowflake’s official documentation on the Snowflake SQL REST API available on their website. Here are some relevant links:

The Time Travel retention period for T1 will be 30 days, which is the retention period set at the table level. The Time Travel retention period determines how long the historical data is preserved and accessible for an object after it is modified or dropped. The Time Travel retention period can be set at the account level, the database level, the schema level, or the table level. The retention period set at the lowest level of the hierarchy takes precedence over the higher levels. Therefore, the retention period set at the table level overrides the retention periods set at the schema level, the database level, or the account level. When the user drops the database DB1, the table T1 is also dropped, but the historical data is still preserved for 30 days, which is the retention period set at the table level. The user can use the UNDROP command to restore the table T1 within the 30-day period. The other options are incorrect because:

10 days is the retention period set at the database level, which is overridden by the table level.

20 days is the retention period set at the schema level, which is also overridden by the table level.

37 days is not a valid option, as it is not the retention period set at any level.

Snowflake Time Travel & Fail-safe

The best way to integrate an enterprise identity provider with federated authentication and enable automatic user creation and role assignment in Snowflake is to use SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management). SCIM allows Snowflake to synchronize with the identity provider and create users and groups based on the information provided by the identity provider. The groups are mapped to roles in Snowflake, and the users are assigned the roles based on their group membership. This way, the identity provider remains the source of truth for user and group management, and Snowflake automatically reflects the changes without manual intervention. The other options are either incorrect or incomplete, as they involve using OAuth, which is a protocol for authorization, not authentication or user provisioning, and require additional configuration of authorization and resource servers.
