What Snowflake recommendation is designed to ensure that staged data is only loaded once "...

Snowflake recommends removing data files from the staging area after they have been loaded into the target table. This practice ensures that the data is only loaded once and prevents accidental reloading of the same data. By removing the files, you eliminate the risk of duplicate data loads.

Stage the Data:Upload the data files to a Snowflake stage (internal or external).

Load the Data:Use theCOPY INTOcommand to load the data from the stage into the Snowflake table.

Remove the Data Files:After successfully loading the data, remove the data files from the stage using theREMOVEcommand.
