True or False: The COPY command must specify a File Format in order to execute.
True or False: The COPY command must specify a File Format in order to execute.
The COPY command in Snowflake does not necessarily require specifying a File Format in order to execute. It can automatically infer the file format based on the file's extension or internal structure. If needed, the file format can be specified explicitly for more control, but it is not mandatory.
The correct answer is FALSE. The file format can be defined at the stage, table, or copy into command. Create Stage: https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/create-stage.html Create Table (STAGE_FILE_FORMAT option): https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/create-table.html Copy Into: https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/copy-into-table.html
False. In Snowflake, the COPY command does not necessarily require specifying a File Format in order to execute. The COPY command can be used to load data into a table from various file formats such as CSV, JSON, Avro, Parquet, etc. When a file format is not explicitly specified in the COPY command, Snowflake attempts to automatically infer the file format based on the file's extension or internal file structure. This automatic file format inference feature is known as "automatic file format detection." However, if the file format cannot be determined automatically or if you want to override the automatic detection, you can explicitly specify a File Format in the COPY command using the FILE_FORMAT parameter. So, while specifying a File Format can provide more control and customization over the data loading process, it is not mandatory for the COPY command to execute successfully.
The answer is FALSE. According to snowflake documentation, FILE FORMAT is an optional parameter. https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/copy-into-table#required-parameters
A.The COPY command must specify a File Format in order to execute
FILE_FORMAT parameter is defined as an optional parameter in snowflake documentation: https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/copy-into-table#optional-parameters
A.True
correct answer:B
It is optional
In the COPY command, the File_Format is not mandatory. With the Internal Named Stage you can specify file_format during creation of the stage
True-A
A.True
B is correct
file format is nor mandatory
The answer is FALSE. According to snowflake documentation, FILE FORMAT is an optional parameter. https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/copy-into-table#required-parameters
Correct Answer is B. Specifying FILE Format is not pre-requisite. see below Copy command e.g -- S3 bucket COPY INTO mytable FROM 's3://mybucket/./../a.csv'; -- Google Cloud Storage bucket COPY INTO mytable FROM 'gcs://mybucket/./../a.csv'; -- Azure container COPY INTO mytable FROM 'azure://myaccount.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer/./../a.csv';
Answer is B as it optional to provide in here as we can provide it later part also at stage or table level.
A is correct
