SnowPro Advanced: Architect — Question 95

An Architect is integrating an application that needs to read and write data to Snowflake without installing any additional software on the application server.

How can this requirement be met?

Answer options

• A. Use SnowSQL.
• B. Use the Snowpipe REST API.
• C. Use the Snowflake SQL REST API.
• D. Use the Snowflake ODBC driver.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The Snowflake SQL REST API allows applications to interact with Snowflake directly over HTTP, thus meeting the requirement without the need for additional software installations. In contrast, SnowSQL is a command-line tool, the Snowpipe REST API is focused on loading data, and the ODBC driver requires installation on the application server.
