Exam ARA-R01 Topic 4 Question 43 Discussion

Actual exam question for Snowflake's ARA-R01 exam
Question #: 43
Topic #: 4
An Architect has a VPN_ACCESS_LOGS table in the SECURITY_LOGS schema containing timestamps of the connection and disconnection, username of the user, and summary statistics.
What should the Architect do to enable the Snowflake search optimization service on this table?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

According to the SnowPro Advanced: Architect Exam Study Guide, to enable the search optimization service on a table, the user must have the ADD SEARCH OPTIMIZATION privilege on the table and the schema.
The privilege can be granted explicitly or inherited from a higher-level object, such as a database or a role. The OWNERSHIP privilege on a table implies the ADD SEARCH OPTIMIZATION privilege, so the user who owns the table can enable the search optimization service on it. Therefore, the correct answer is to assume a role with OWNERSHIP on VPN_ACCESS_LOGS and ADD SEARCH OPTIMIZATION in the SECURITY_LOGS schema. This will allow the user to enable the search optimization service on the VPN_ACCESS_LOGS table and any future tables created in the SECURITY_LOGS schema. The other options are incorrect because they either grant excessive privileges or do not grant the required privileges on the table or the schema. References:
