Which tables can SHOW TABLES list?

Explanation:
Show Tables is scoped to the session’s current schema. It lists only the tables that exist in that schema (and you can direct it to another schema with IN SCHEMA or by switching context). The command does not pull tables from the entire account or from providers. In practice, what you see is also shaped by your privileges—tables you don’t have access to won’t appear. So, in your current schema, SHOW TABLES will show the tables you can see and work with. If you need to check a different schema, switch context or specify the schema explicitly.
