Hi Winosky:
Temp tables created by the Snowflake Bulk snaps will be cleaned up during processing, so they are not suitable for accessing or joining against, at least reliably.

Hi @mbowen, so it is possible then? When talking about reliable, do you mean Snaplogic randomly decides when the temp table is dropped or is it done during the snap?

Sorry, poor choice of words on my part. The snap manages the temporary table, and will remove it after it has completed its operation, so is an ephemeral thing. Let me see if I can fish out some more specifics for you. You mentioned that deleting via snap too time/resource consuming.

Ah thanks, yup when I’m using the delete snap I’m deleting over 100k records and running a transaction separately isn’t ideal. Is there another approach to using the delete snap? Can a script snap get around this maybe?
What I’m trying to accomplish now is to break the 100k into groups but it might not be ideal either.
