Pass value within snowflake's javascript procedure

Question

Is it possible in Snowflake dwh to retrive SQL query result and pass it as a variable to the next query within same procedure?

I'm trying to attempt %ROWCOUNT, CURSOR case and got stuck with below:

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE PASS_VAR_IN_JS()
RETURNS VARCHAR
LANGUAGE javascript
  AS
    $$
    var command = "SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE ATTRIBUTE = 'Value'";
    var stmt = snowflake.createStatement( {sqlText: command} );
    var result1 = stmt.execute();
    return result1.getColumnName(3); //this returns column name
    var col_name = result1.getColumnName(3); //save column name to variable

    //pass the column name to the query
    var stmt = snowflake.createStatement({sqlText: "SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA WHERE COLUMN_NAME = ;", binds:[col_name]});

    $$; 

UPDATE - working code that passes one result to another query
<pre>
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE szpotma_rowcount()
RETURNS VARCHAR(250)
LANGUAGE JAVASCRIPT
as
$$
  var command = `SELECT ATTR1 FROM TABLE1 LIMIT 1`; 
  var stmt = snowflake.createStatement( {sqlText: command} );
  var rs = stmt.execute(), col_name ;

  if (rs.next()) {
    col_name = rs.getColumnValue(1);
    stmt = snowflake.createStatement({
        sqlText: `SELECT STATUS FROM TABLE_STATUS WHERE ATTR1 = :1`, binds: [col_name]});

    //view second query results
    rs = stmt.execute();    
    rs.next()
    return rs.getColumnValue(1);
  }
$$

Answer 1

Sure.

You can do with just:

  var command = `SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE ATTRIBUTE = 'Value'`;
  var stmt = snowflake.createStatement( {sqlText: command} );
  var rs = stmt.execute(), col_name ;
  if (rs.next()) {
    col_name = rs.getColumnValue(3);

    stmt = snowflake.createStatement({
        sqlText: `SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE COLUMN_NAME = :1`, 
          binds: [col_name]
    });
  }

I've listed up various ways to pull data from a result set in:

[Copied from above]:

If you have multiple columns, the code becomes slightly more complicated:

  var result = [], row, col;
  while (rs.next()) {
    row = [];
    for (col = 1; col <= stmt.columnCount; col++)
      row.push(rs.getColumnValue(col));
    result.push(row);
  }

Hardcore JavaScript programmers might compress this to:

var result = [], cols = Array.from({ length: stmt.columnCount }, (v, i) => i + 1);
while (rs.next()) result.push(cols.map(c => rs.getColumnValue(c)));

A final variant where the first result row contains the column names and the following rows contain the data from the result set, accessible as result[row][column]:

var result =
    [ Array.from({ length: stmt.columnCount }, (v, i) => stmt.getColumnName(i + 1)) ];
while (rs.next()) result.push(result[0].map(cn => rs.getColumnValue(cn)));
