Question 41

An Architect needs to grant a group of ORDER_ADMIN users the ability to clean old data in an ORDERS table (deleting all records older than 5 years), without granting any privileges on the table. The group’s manager (ORDER_MANAGER) has full DELETE privileges on the table.

How can the ORDER_ADMIN role be enabled to perform this data cleanup, without needing the DELETE privilege held by the ORDER_MANAGER role?

Create a stored procedure that runs with caller’s rights, including the appropriate "> 5 years" business logic, and grant USAGE on this procedure to ORDER_ADMIN. The ORDER_MANAGER role owns the procedure.

Create a stored procedure that can be run using both caller’s and owner’s rights (allowing the user to specify which rights are used during execution), and grant USAGE on this procedure to ORDER_ADMIN. The ORDER_MANAGER role owns the procedure.

Create a stored procedure that runs with owner’s rights, including the appropriate "> 5 years" business logic, and grant USAGE on this procedure to ORDER_ADMIN. The ORDER_MANAGER role owns the procedure.

This scenario would actually not be possible in Snowflake – any user performing a DELETE on a table requires the DELETE privilege to be granted to the role they are using.

Correct Answer: C

To enable ORDER_ADMIN users to perform the data cleanup without granting them DELETE privileges, a stored procedure can be created that executes with the owner’s rights. This stored procedure would include the logic to delete records older than 5 years and be owned by the ORDER_MANAGER role, which has the necessary DELETE privileges. The ORDER_ADMIN role would then be granted USAGE on this stored procedure, allowing them to execute it without directly having DELETE privileges on the ORDERS table.
