Snowflake SOL-C01 Exam - Topic 3 Question 2 Discussion

Actual exam question for Snowflake's SOL-C01 exam
Question #: 2
Topic #: 3
[All SOL-C01 Questions]

What is the purpose of a role hierarchy in Snowflake?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Role hierarchy in Snowflake allows one role to inherit the privileges of another. By granting roles to other roles, Snowflake enables scalable, maintainable access control. Higher-level roles grant privileges downward, allowing administrators to create layered access structures. This hierarchy simplifies permission management across teams and environments. It has no relation to SQL sequencing, network settings, or data storage.

I'm a bit unsure about this. Is the role hierarchy also used for managing network settings or storing data? I want to make sure I fully understand the purpose before answering.
