How would a user execute a series of SQL statements using a task?
A.
Include the SQL statements in the body of the task CREATE TASK mytask .. AS INSERT INTO target1 SELECT .. FROM stream_s1 WHERE .. INSERT INTO target2 SELECT .. FROM stream_s1
WHERE ..
B.
A stored procedure can have only one DML statement per stored procedure invocation and therefore the user should sequence stored procedure calls in the task definition CREATE TASK mytask .... AS
call stored_proc1(); call stored_proc2();
C.
Use a stored procedure executing multiple SQL statements and invoke the stored procedure from the task. CREATE TASK mytask .... AS call stored_proc_multiple_statements_inside();
D.
Create a task for each SQL statement (e.g. resulting in task1, task2, etc.) and string the series of SQL statements by having a control task calling task1, task2, etc. sequentially.
To execute a series of SQL statements using a task, a user would use a stored procedure that contains multiple SQL statements and invoke this stored procedure from the task. References: Snowflake Documentation2.
