Select into unlogged tables are not supported by Snowflake.

Description

Select Into is not supported by Snowflake, this functionality was emulated with CREATE TABLE AS. In addition, Snowflake always uses transaction logs to protect tables and ensure data integrity and recoverability. Consequently, tables with the UNLOGGED option are not supported by Snowflake.

Code Example

Input Code:

PostgreSQL

IN -> PostgreSQL_01.sql

select column1
      into UNLOGGED NewTable
      from oldTable;

Output Code:

Snowflake

OUT -> PostgreSQL_01.sql

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS NewTable AS
      select column1
--      --** SSC-FDM-PG0008 - SELECT INTO UNLOGGED TABLES ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY SNOWFLAKE. **
--            into UNLOGGED NewTable
            from
            oldTable;
