QuestionQ70

Snowflake Gen AI Governance

A Gen AI Specialist registered a new model in the Snowflake Model Registry and granted the USAGE privilege to a custom role, TRAINEE_ROLE.

When a new user with TRAINEE_ROLE tried to download the model artifacts with the GET command, an error occurred.

What would cause this error?

  • A The role has only USAGE and lacks READ or OWNERSHIP on the model.
  • B The user does not have the USAGE privilege on the schema.
  • C The user is not using the show_models() download method.
  • D The user is not using Snowpark Python FileOperation.get.
Explanation

Model USAGE permits warehouse inference and listing models or versions, but it does not expose model code, weights, or other artifacts. Artifact access requires READ or OWNERSHIP, so a role granted only USAGE cannot download them.
