LIST_STAGE

Lists files in a stage. This allows you to filter files in a stage based on their extensions and obtain comprehensive details about each file. The function is similar to the DDL command LIST STAGE FILES, but provides you the flexibility to retrieve specific file information with the SELECT statement, such as file name, size, MD5 hash, last modified timestamp, and creator, rather than all file information.

Syntax

LIST_STAGE(
  LOCATION => '{ internalStage | externalStage | userStage }'
  [ PATTERN => '<regex_pattern>']
)

Where:

internalStage

internalStage ::= @<internal_stage_name>[/<path>]

externalStage

externalStage ::= @<external_stage_name>[/<path>]

userStage

userStage ::= @~[/<path>]

PATTERN

Filters staged files by regular expression. It matches the file path portion after @<stage_name>[/<path>]. See Filtering Staged Files with PATTERN.

Examples

SELECT * FROM list_stage(location => '@my_stage/', pattern => '.*[.]log');
+----------------+------+------------------------------------+-------------------------------+---------+
|      name      | size |                md5                 |         last_modified         | creator |

-- Equivalent to the following statement:
LIST @my_stage PATTERN = '.*[.]log';
