Is it possible to get key value pairs from snowflake api instead rowType? - snowflake-cloud-data-platform

Question

I'm working with an API from snowflake and to deal with the json data, I would need to receive data as key-value paired instead of rowType.
I've been searching for results but haven't found any
e.g. A table user with name and email attributes
Name
Email
Kelly
kelly#email.com
Fisher
fisher#email.com
I would request this body:
{
"statement": "SELECT * FROM user",
"timeout": 60,
"database": "DEV",
"schema": "PLACE",
"warehouse": "WH",
"role": "DEV_READER",
"bindings": {
"1": {
"type": "FIXED",
"value": "123"
}
}
}
The results would come like:
{
"resultSetMetaData": {
...
"rowType": [
{ "name": "Name",
...},
{ "name": "Email",
...}
],
},
"data": [
[
"Kelly",
"kelly#email.com"
],
[
"Fisher",
"fisher#email.com"
]
]
}
And the results needed would be:
{
"resultSetMetaData": {
...
"data": [
[
"Name":"Kelly",
"Email":"kelly#email.com"
],
[
"Name":"Fisher",
"Email":"fisher#email.com"
]
]
}
Thank you for any inputs

Answer 1

The output is not valid JSON, but the return can arrive in a slightly different format:
{
"resultSetMetaData": {
...
"data":
[
{
"Name": "Kelly",
"Email": "kelly#email.com"
},
{
"Name": "Fisher",
"Email": "fisher#email.com"
}
]
}
}
To get the API to send it that way, you can change the SQL from select * to:
select object_construct(*) as KVP from "USER";
You can also specify the names of the keys using:
select object_construct('NAME', "NAME", 'EMAIL', EMAIL) from "USER";
The object_construct function takes an arbitrary number of parameters, as long as they're even, so:
object_construct('KEY1', VALUE1, 'KEY2', VALUE2, <'KEY_N'>, <VALUE_N>)
