Question 348

Which of the following can be used when unloading data from Snowflake? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: A, D

    When unloading semi-structured data from Snowflake, the STRIP_OUTER_ARRAY option is often recommended to remove the outermost array from the unloaded JSON data. Additionally, using the SINGLE = TRUE parameter allows exporting a single file up to 5 GB in size to the storage layer. These two methods are well-suited for the specified use cases when unloading data from Snowflake.

Specifically mentioned in Snowflake Documentation: "Output files are always encoded using UTF-8, regardless of the file format; no other character sets are supported." https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/intro-summary-unloading#:~:text=File%20encoding,sets%20are%20supported.

To me both BCD looks right. Regarding B you can use a file format for unloading (https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/data-unload-prepare.html) And you can use ENCODING to change it https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/create-file-format.html
