Snowflake Exam ARA-C01 Topic 5 Question 35 Discussion

Actual exam question for Snowflake's ARA-C01 exam
Question #: 35
Topic #: 5
[All ARA-C01 Questions]

An Architect is implementing a CI/CD process. When attempting to clone a table from a production to a development environment, the cloning operation fails.

What could be causing this to happen?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Cloning a table with a masking policy can cause the cloning operation to fail because the masking policy is not automatically cloned with the table. This is due to the fact that the masking policy is considered a separate object with its own set of privileges1.

Retention time set to zero? Sounds like someone's been playing with the delete button. Option C is the culprit!

The table is transient, so it's probably dancing its way out of the cloning process. Option A is the way to go!

User4: I don't think it's the retention time, maybe it's the cloning direction.

Option D is too obvious. Tables can't be cloned from production to dev? What is this, amateur hour?

Could it be that tables cannot be cloned from a higher environment to a lower environment?

I think option B is the correct answer. A masking policy would prevent the table from being cloned, right?

Haha, the table is probably sentient and doesn't want to be cloned. Clearly, the production environment is trying to protect its secrets!
