The COPY command is used in Snowflake to load data from files located in an external stage into a table. This command allows for efficient and parallelized data loading from various file formats1.

Snowflake external tables are read-only, which means data manipulation language (DML) operations like INSERT, RENAME, or ALTER cannot be performed on them. However, external tables can be used for query and join operations3.

When a primary database is replicated, Snowflake replicates supported database objects. Secure views are database objects and are included. Pipes are schema-level database objects and can also be replicated, subject to supported replication behavior and configuration.
Important note: support for newer objects such as dynamic tables, event tables, and external tables can vary by feature maturity and replication configuration. Based on SnowPro Core-style expectations, the best answers are secure views and pipes .
