SnowPro Core Certification — Question 353

Which statement about data sharing is true?

Answer options

• A. Accounts can share with other accounts regardless of their Snowflake edition, without requiring help from Snowflake Support.
• B. Data sharing can cross regions, but not cloud providers.
• C. The Data Consumer can only see objects in the Data Provider’s source database that have been explicitly added to the share.
• D. A Data Provider can only share with other Snowflake customers.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because it accurately reflects the limitation of what a Data Consumer can access in the Data Provider's database. Options A and D are incorrect since they misrepresent the sharing capabilities relative to Snowflake editions and customer restrictions. Option B incorrectly states that data sharing cannot cross cloud providers, which is not true.
