Company A uses Snowflake to manage audio files of call recordings...

According to the Snowflake documentation1, pre-signed URLs are required to access external files in a share. A secure view can be used to generate pre-signed URLs for the audio files stored in an external stage and expose them to the consumer account. Option A is incorrect because file URLs alone are not sufficient to access external files in a share. Option C is incorrect because METADATA$FILENAME only returns the file name, not the full path or URL. Option D is incorrect because the stage name and file path are not enough to generate pre-signed URLs.
