What kind of authentication do Snowpipe REST endpoints use?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Snowpipe uses key-based authentication for its REST endpoints. This involves generating and using a key pair (public and private keys) to securely authenticate API requests.

Generate Key Pair: Generate a public and private key pair.

Register Public Key: Register the public key with the Snowflake user that will be making the API requests.

Authenticate Requests: Use the private key to sign API requests sent to Snowpipe REST endpoints.

Username and password? Really? In this day and age? Next you'll tell me Snowpipe uses carrier pigeons to transfer data. Key-based is the way to go, my dudes.
