SnowPro Core Certification — Question 892

What type of account can be used to share data with a consumer who does not have a Snowflake account?

Answer options

• A. Data provider
• B. Data consumer
• C. Reader
• D. Organization

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The Reader account type in Snowflake is specifically designed for sharing data with users who do not have their own Snowflake accounts. The other options, such as Data provider and Data consumer, refer to roles that require a Snowflake account for data interaction, making them unsuitable for sharing with external consumers.
