Read Snowflake access control overview to understand standard roles from Snowflake.https://docs.snowflake.net/manuals/user-guide/security-access-control-overview.html

To understand access control privileges refer below link. https://docs.snowflake.net/manuals/user-guide/security-access-control-privileges.html
