This topic provides the syntax for calling the function directly. To learn how to associate the function with a table or view so it runs at regular intervals, see Associate a DMF.

Syntax¶

SNOWFLAKE.CORE.INVALID_USA_ZIP_CODE_COUNT(<query>)

Arguments¶

query: Specifies a SQL query that projects a single column.

Allowed data types¶

The column projected by the query must have the VARCHAR data type.

Returns¶

The function returns a NUMBER value. NULL values are not counted.

Usage notes¶

The function checks the format only; it does not verify that the ZIP Code is assigned.

Example¶

Measure the number of invalid ZIP Codes in the zip_code column:

SELECT SNOWFLAKE.CORE.INVALID_USA_ZIP_CODE_COUNT(
  SELECT
    zip_code
  FROM crm.tables.addresses
