Explanation

Snowpipe load history - the record of files ingested via Snowpipe - is retained for 14 days. This history is queryable via the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.LOAD_HISTORY view or the REST API endpoint. It is used to prevent duplicate file loads; Snowpipe tracks which files have already been ingested within this 14-day window and will skip reloading them. After 14 days, the record is purged, so files older than 14 days could be reloaded if submitted again.
