Which statement describes how Snowflake supports reader accounts?

Answer options

• A. A reader account can consume data from the provider account that created it and combine it with its own data.
• B. A consumer needs to become a licensed Snowflake customer as data sharing is only supported between Snowflake accounts.
• C. The users in a reader account can query data that has been shared with the reader account and can perform DML tasks.
• D. The SHOW MANAGED ACCOUNTS command will view all the reader accounts that have been created for an account.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the SHOW MANAGED ACCOUNTS command is specifically designed to display all reader accounts associated with an account. Options A, B, and C contain inaccuracies regarding the capabilities and requirements of reader accounts, such as the nature of data sharing and the specific actions users can perform.
