Description
Describe the bug
At the "Create and Outbound Share" step within Step 6 of this Quickstart, the instructions say to grant the iceberg_lab
role permissions to create a share. This doesn't allow that role to actually fully execute the Share to make it available to another account.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Complete the Quickstart through Step 5 (Processing Iceberg Tables with Snowpark)
- Move on to Step 6 (Sharing Iceberg Tables)
- Try to complete the "Create an Outbound Share" step as instructed. You will get an insufficient privileges error when using the
iceberg_lab
role.
Expected behavior
Based on the instructions, the iceberg_lab
role should be able to fully create a share with a secondary/reader account, but the privileges are insufficient, so you have to use the accountadmin
role to move forward.
