You have deployed a sentiment analysis model on AWS SageMaker and want to integrate it with Snowflake using an external function. You've created an API integration object. Which of the following SQL statements is the most secure and efficient way to create an external function that utilizes this API integration, assuming the model expects a JSON payload with a 'text' field, the API integration is named 'sagemaker_integration' , the SageMaker endpoint URL is 'https://your-sagemaker-endpoint.com/invoke' , and you want the Snowflake function to be named 'predict_sentiment'?

Correct Answer: C
Option C is the most secure and efficient. It correctly uses the 'API_INTEGRATION' to leverage Snowflake's security features for managing credentials. It also includes the 'HEADERS' parameter to specify the content type, which is essential for proper communication with the SageMaker endpoint. REQUEST and RESPONSE translators can avoid some of the boilerplate JSON building and parsing within the Snowflake environment. The other options are either missing crucial headers or do not use the API integration securely.
