Question 16 of 150
A data engineer configures Auto Loader to ingest JSON files from cloud storage using schema inference. After the first run, they notice that numeric fields like 'order_total' and 'quantity' are all being inferred as STRING type in the target table, even though the JSON values are clearly numbers. The engineer wants Auto Loader to infer proper data types such as INTEGER and DOUBLE instead of treating everything as strings. Which option should they set to achieve this?
