September 04, 2024 — Calling stored procedures in the FROM clause of SELECT statements

You can now call a stored procedure that returns tabular data directly in the FROM clause of a SELECT statement. You can use this technique to simplify the SQL statements for saving results to a table. For example, rather than using the SQLID Snowflake Scripting variable with the RESULT_SCAN function to create a table containing these results, you can use a query that directly selects from the results.

When calling the stored procedure, omit the CALL command. Instead, put the call in parentheses, preceded by the TABLE keyword.
