ROWS_IN_PAST_WEEK_PERCENT (system data metric function)¶

Returns the percentage of column values that fall in the 7 days before the scheduled evaluation time. The percentage is computed over the total row count, including NULL values in the denominator.

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.ROWS_IN_PAST_WEEK_PERCENT(<query>)

Arguments¶

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

Allowed data types¶

The column projected by the query must have one of the following data types:

DATE
TIMESTAMP_LTZ
TIMESTAMP_TZ

Returns¶

The function returns a FLOAT value. The function returns NULL if the table or view has no rows.

Usage notes¶

For a TIMESTAMP_LTZ or TIMESTAMP_TZ column, the window starts 7 days before the scheduled evaluation time and ends at the scheduled evaluation time; both boundaries are included. Values later than the scheduled evaluation time are not counted.
For a DATE column, the window is the 7 calendar days that end on the date of the scheduled evaluation time, including that date.
Unlike most system DMFs, this function measures values that meet the expectation: a value of 0 means that no rows arrived in the window.
When you call the function directly, the current timestamp is used as the scheduled evaluation time.

Example¶

Measure the percentage of rows that arrived in the past 7 days in the ingested_at column:

SELECT SNOWFLAKE.CORE.ROWS_IN_PAST_WEEK_PERCENT(
  SELECT
    ingested_at
  FROM events.tables.activity
);
