• This is from documentation => docs.snowflake/en/sql-reference/sql/copy-into-location The optional path parameter specifies a folder and filename prefix for the file(s) containing unloaded data. If a filename prefix is not included in path or if the PARTITION BY parameter is specified, the filenames for the generated data files are prefixed with data_. – samhita Commented Nov 19, 2024 at 10:21

There is the parameter "Single=True" that would remove the UUID part from the file that is being unloaded to S3 using the "copy into" command. https://docs.snowflake/en/sql-reference/sql/copy-into-location

but for the custom filename, I think you will need a Stored Proc to achieve that during the file unload operation.
