Snowflake Scripting output (OUT) arguments — General Availability

Data governance updates

Data Quality: New system data metric function

A new system data metric function, ACCEPTED_VALUES, validates whether values in a column match a Boolean expression. When the ACCEPTED_VALUES function runs, it returns the number of records where the column value didn’t match the Boolean value, which can indicate a data quality issue.
