Answer: Anyone who has the URL can access the referenced file for the life of the token.
According to Snowflake documentation on unstructured data file access, pre-signed URLs provide time-limited access to files without requiring the user to have direct privileges on the stage or file. Option A is correct because anyone with the URL can access the file during the token's validity period, regardless of their Snowflake role or privileges. Option B is incorrect because the URL can be shared and used by anyone, not just the generating user. Option C is incorrect as no specific role privileges are required to use the URL. Option D is incorrect because the GET REST API call doesn't require the role to have stage privileges - the pre-signed URL itself contains the necessary authorization.
