In Snowflake, a reader account is a type of account that is intended for consuming shared data rather than performing any data management or DDL operations. The CREATE SHARE command is used to share data from your account with another account, which is not a capability provided to reader accounts. Reader accounts are typically restricted from creating shares, as their primary purpose is to read shared data rather than to share it themselves.
