Explanation

GET_PRESIGNED_URL generates a temporary, time-limited pre-signed URL that grants direct HTTPS access to a file stored in a Snowflake stage - without requiring Snowflake credentials. This is the only option that allows an external tool with no Snowflake access to retrieve the file. BUILD_SCOPED_FILE_URL (A) generates a scoped URL that still requires a valid Snowflake session to use. BUILD_STAGE_FILE_URL (C) generates a persistent URL but also requires a Snowflake session. GET_STAGE_LOCATION (D) returns the stage's cloud storage path, not a shareable access URL.
