Explanation

The ON_ERROR clause in Snowflake's COPY INTO command accepts the following valid options: CONTINUE (skip erroneous rows and continue loading), SKIP_FILE (skip the entire file that contains errors), SKIP_FILE_<num> or SKIP_FILE_<num>% (skip a file if the number/percentage of errors exceeds a threshold), and ABORT_STATEMENT (default - abort the COPY operation if any error is encountered). 'FAIL' (option D) is NOT a valid ON_ERROR value in Snowflake. The three correct answers - CONTINUE, SKIP_FILE, and ABORT_STATEMENT - are the core options available for controlling error handling behavior during data loading.
