True or False: Resource Monitor notifications are automatically assigned to the ACCOUNTADMIN role?

1. True

2. False

3. Only if configured by the admin

4. This varies by account type

The correct answer is: False

Resource Monitor notifications are not automatically assigned to the ACCOUNTADMIN role in Snowflake. Instead, these notifications can be configured based on the preferences of the Snowflake account administrators. Notifications can be sent to specific users or roles as determined by the configuration settings, allowing for a more tailored approach to monitoring resources rather than a default assignment to a single role. This flexibility enables organizations to assign resource monitoring to relevant personnel, ensuring those who are responsible for managing and optimizing resource usage receive timely updates, while also keeping unnecessary notifications from reaching users who do not require that information. Consequently, the assertion that notifications are automatically assigned to the ACCOUNTADMIN role is incorrect, as it does not reflect the customizable nature of the notification settings in Snowflake.
