Explanation

GET_PRESIGNED_URL generates a temporary, pre-signed URL that allows anyone (including external users and applications) to download a specific file from a Snowflake stage without needing Snowflake credentials or an active session. This makes it ideal for distributing unstructured data. BUILD_STAGE_FILE_URL requires Snowflake authentication to use, BUILD_SCOPED_FILE_URL is session-scoped and not suitable for external sharing, and GET_STAGE_LOCATION returns only the base location of a stage rather than a downloadable link to a specific file.
