A Snowflake user is writing a User-Defined Function (UDF) that includes some unqualified object names.

Object Name Resolution: When unqualified object names (e.g., table name without schema) are used in a UDF, Snowflake follows a specific hierarchy to resolve them. Here's the order:

Current Schema: Snowflake first checks if an object with the given name exists in the schema currently in use for the session.

PUBLIC Schema: If the object isn't found in the current schema, Snowflake looks in the PUBLIC schema of the current database.

Note: TheSEARCH_PATHparameter influences object resolution for queries, not within UDFs.
