D.
To see all errors from a previously run COPY INTO <table> statement
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

The VALIDATE command in Snowflake is used to check for errors that occurred during the execution of a COPY INTO <table> statement. This command helps users identify and resolve data loading issues.

Run the COPY INTO Statement: Execute the COPY INTO <table> command to load data from a stage into a table.

COPY INTO my_table

FROM @my_stage

FILE_FORMAT = (FORMAT_NAME = 'my_format');

Validate the Load: Use the VALIDATE function to see if there were any errors during the data load.

SELECT *

FROM TABLE(VALIDATE(my_table, JOB_ID => 'my_copy_job_id'));

Review Errors: The VALIDATE function will return details about any errors that occurred, such as parsing errors or data type mismatches.
