SnowPro Core Certification — Question 419
What is SnowSQL?
Answer options
- A. Snowflake's new user interface where users can visualize data into charts and dashboards.
- B. Snowflake's proprietary extension of the ANSI SQL standard, including built-in keywords and system functions.
- C. Snowflake's command line client built on the Python connector which is used to connect to Snowflake and execute SQL.
- D. Snowflake's library that provides a programming interface for processing data on Snowflake without moving it to the system where the application code runs.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C because SnowSQL is specifically designed as a command line client for connecting to Snowflake and executing SQL. Option A describes a user interface, which is not the focus of SnowSQL, while B refers to an extension of SQL, and D describes a library for processing data, both of which do not accurately represent what SnowSQL is.
