Snowflake ARA-R01 Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

 These two actions are possible with an inbound share, according to the Snowflake documentation and the web search results. An inbound share is a share that is created by another Snowflake account (the provider) and imported into your account (the consumer). An inbound share allows you to access the data shared by the provider, but not to modify or delete it. However, you can perform some actions with the inbound share, such as:

• Clone a table from a share. You can create a copy of a table from an inbound share using the CREATE TABLE … CLONE statement. The clone will contain the same data and metadata as the original table, but it will be independent of the share. You can modify or delete the clone as you wish, but it will not reflect any changes made to the original table by the provider1.
• Create additional views inside the shared database. You can create views on the tables or views from an inbound share using the CREATE VIEW statement. The views will be stored in the shared database, but they will be owned by your account. You can query the views as you would query any other view in your account, but you cannot modify or delete the underlying objects from the share2.

The other actions listed are not possible with an inbound share, because they would require modifying the share or the shared objects, which are read-only for the consumer. You cannot grant modify permissions on the share, create a table from the shared database, or create a table stream on the shared table34.

To ensure that an analyst_user can only access Snowflake from specific IP addresses, the following steps are required:

• Option B: This alters the network policy directly linked to analyst_user. Setting a network policy on the user level is effective and ensures that the specified network restrictions apply directly and exclusively to this user.
• Option D: Before a network policy can be set or altered, the appropriate role with permission to manage network policies must be used. SECURITYADMIN is typically the role that has privileges to create and manage network policies in Snowflake. Creating a network policy that specifies allowed IP addresses ensures that only requests coming from those IPs can access Snowflake under this policy. After creation, this policy can be linked to specific users or roles as needed.

Options A and E mention altering roles or using the wrong role (USERADMIN typically does not manage network security settings), and option C incorrectly attempts to set a network policy directly as an IP address, which is not syntactically or functionally valid.References: Snowflake's security management documentation covering network policies and role-based access controls.

 The SIMULATED_DATA_SHARING_CONSUMER session parameter allows a data provider to simulate the data access of a consumer account without creating a reader account or logging in with the consumer credentials. This parameter can be used to validate the data accessibility by the consumers in a data share, especially when using secure views or secure UDFs that filter data based on the current account or role. By setting this parameter to the name of a consumer account, the data provider can see the same data as the consumer would see when querying the shared database. This is a convenient and efficient way to test the data sharing functionality and ensure that only the intended data is visible to the consumers.
