  • Latency for the view may be up to 24 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:

    • Background maintenance operations on metadata performed by Snowflake.
