Schema:: ACCOUNT_USAGE

MASKING_POLICIES view¶

This Account Usage view provides the masking policies in your account.

Each row in this view corresponds to a different masking policy.

Columns¶

Column Name	Data Type	Description
POLICY_NAME	TEXT	Name of the masking policy.
POLICY_ID	NUMBER	Internal/system-generated identifier for the masking policy.
POLICY_SCHEMA_ID	TEXT	Internal/system-generated identifier for the schema in which the policy resides.
POLICY_SCHEMA	TEXT	Schema to which the masking policy belongs.
POLICY_CATALOG_ID	TEXT	Internal/system-generated identifier for the database in which the policy resides.
POLICY_CATALOG	TEXT	Database to which the masking policy belongs.
POLICY_OWNER	TEXT	Name of the role that owns the masking policy.
POLICY_SIGNATURE	TEXT	Type signature of the masking policy’s arguments.
POLICY_RETURN_TYPE	TEXT	Return value data type.
POLICY_BODY	TEXT	Masking policy definition.
POLICY_COMMENT	TEXT	Comments entered for the masking policy (if any).
CREATED	TIMESTAMP_LTZ	Date and time when the masking policy was created.
LAST_ALTERED	TIMESTAMP_LTZ	Date and time the object was last altered by a DML, DDL, or background metadata operation. See Usage Notes.
DELETED	TIMESTAMP_LTZ	Date and time when the masking policy was dropped.
OWNER_ROLE_TYPE	TEXT	The type of role that owns the object, for example `ROLE`. . If a Snowflake Native App owns the object, the value is `APPLICATION`. . Snowflake returns NULL if you delete the object because a deleted object does not have an owner role.
OPTIONS	VARIANT	The value for the EXEMPT_OTHER_POLICIES property in the policy. If set to `TRUE`, the column returns `{ "EXEMPT_OTHER_POLICIES: "TRUE" }`. If the property is set to `FALSE` or not set at all, the column returns NULL.

Usage notes¶

Latency for the view may be up to 120 minutes (2 hours).

The view only displays objects for which the current role for the session has been granted access privileges.
The LAST_ALTERED column is updated when the following operations are performed on an object:
- DDL operations.
- DML operations (for tables only). This column is updated even when no rows are affected by the DML statement.
- Background maintenance operations on metadata performed by Snowflake.
