<budget_name>!ADD_RESOURCE

Add an object to a custom budget. The object must be added by reference.

See also:

<budget_name>!REMOVE_RESOURCE, <budget_name>!GET_LINKED_RESOURCES

Syntax

<budget_name>!ADD_RESOURCE( { '<object_reference>' | <reference_statement> } )
Copy

Arguments

'object_reference'

The serialized string representation that resolves to an object. This string is the output of the SYSTEM$REFERENCE function.

reference_statement

A SYSTEM$REFERENCE statement that creates a reference for the object to be added to the budget.

Note

If you want to add a Snowflake Native App to a budget, when you call SYSTEM$REFERENCE, specify 'DATABASE' (not 'APPLICATION') for the object_type argument.

See Adding a Snowflake Native App to a budget.

Returns

Returns a VARCHAR value that indicates whether or not the object was successfully added to the budget. For example:

Successfully added resource to resource group

If the object could not be added to the budget, the function returns an error message. See You can’t add or remove objects from a custom budget.

Access control requirements

The following privileges and roles are required to call this method for a custom budget:

  • ADMIN instance role for the budget instance.

  • USAGE privilege on the database and schema that contain the budget instance.

  • USAGE privilege on the database and schema that contain the object being added (for schema objects).

  • APPLYBUDGET privilege on the object being added.

For more information, see Budgets roles and privileges.

Usage notes

  • You can only add objects to custom budgets.

  • You can only add an object to one custom budget. If an object is currently included in one custom budget and you add that object to a second custom budget, Budgets removes the object from the first custom budget without issuing a warning.

  • You cannot create a reference for the SNOWFLAKE database; and you cannot add it to a budget.

  • Calling this method does not return the object. Because of this, you can’t use method chaining to call another method on the return value of this method. Instead, call each method in a separate SQL statement.

Examples

The following examples demonstrate how to add an object to a custom budget:

Adding a table to a budget

  • The following example creates and returns a reference for the t1 table:

    SELECT SYSTEM$REFERENCE('TABLE', 't1', 'SESSION', 'APPLYBUDGET');
    
    Copy

    The statement returns the reference in the output.

    ENT_REF_TABLE_5862683050074_5AEB8D58FB3ACF249F2E35F365A9357C46BB00D7
    

    The following statement uses the string literal for this reference to add the t1 table to the budget_db.budget_schema.my_budget budget:

    CALL budget_db.budget_schema.my_budget!ADD_RESOURCE(
      'ENT_REF_TABLE_5862683050074_5AEB8D58FB3ACF249F2E35F365A9357C46BB00D7');
    
    Copy
  • The following example adds the t2 table to the budget_db.budget_schema.my_budget budget, using a SQL statement to specify the reference:

    CALL budget_db.budget_schema.my_budget!ADD_RESOURCE(
      SELECT SYSTEM$REFERENCE('TABLE', 't2', 'SESSION', 'APPLYBUDGET'));
    
    Copy

Adding a Snowflake Native App to a budget

The following example adds the my_app application to the budget_db.budget_schema.my_budget budget.

Note that when calling SYSTEM$REFERENCE, you must pass in 'DATABASE' (not 'APPLICATION') for the object_type argument.

CALL budget_db.budget_schema.my_budget!ADD_RESOURCE(
  SELECT SYSTEM$REFERENCE('DATABASE', 'my_app', 'SESSION', 'APPLYBUDGET'));
Copy
