Thanks, easy to confuse this with VALIDATION_MODE option for COPY INTO. This question is about VALIDATE after the COPY INTO

Selected Answer: CE
A. To validate the files that have been loaded earlier using the COPY INTO command: This option is incorrect. The VALIDATE function is used to check for errors in the data loading process, not to validate files that have already been loaded. B. To fix errors that were made during the execution of the COPY INTO command: This option is incorrect. The VALIDATE function does not fix errors; it only identifies and reports them. D. To identify potential issues in the COPY INTO command before it is executed: This option is incorrect. The VALIDATE function is used after the COPY INTO command has been executed to check for errors, not to identify potential issues beforehand. The correct options are: C. To return errors encountered during the execution of the COPY INTO command. E. To count the number of errors encountered during the execution of the COPY INTO command.

I am not sure what validating the files in option A means. When it returns the errors, we can also count the number of errors.
