   > @Aggarwal-Raghav This feature seems useful. I support merging this if 
there is no alternative. Based on the implementation, I don't think this 
triggers any side effects. Is that right? If so, this may not belong to the 
`ALTER TABLE` family.
   
   thanks a lot @okumin , for replying and you are correct. Its read-only 
operation, I had a doubt in back of my mind along the same lines but hive 
exposes iceberg procedures using ALTER hence this current implementation. **I'm 
open to suggestions, maybe as UDF if I can expose is that ok, Just a food for a 
thought**
   ```
   SELECT * FROM ancestors_of('tbl_name', snapshotID);
   ```
