Question #13
Which of the following objects can be cloned? (Choose four.)
- ATablesMost Voted
- BNamed File FormatsMost Voted
- CSchemasMost Voted
- DShares
- EDatabasesMost Voted
- FUsers
Correct Answer:
ACEF
ACEF

The correct clonable objects in Snowflake are Databases, Schemas, Tables, and File Formats. While Tables, Schemas, and Databases are commonly cloned within Snowflake for development and testing purposes, File Formats can also be cloned to maintain data ingestion consistency across different environments. The misconception about cloning Users arises from a misunderstanding; Snowflake does not allow the cloning of Users due to unique identifiers and permissions associated with each user account. Shares, similar to Users, are not clonable, as they pertain more to controlled access management rather than structural database components.
