Just make sure that you are using the connection string that references a serverless Synapse SQL pool the endpoint must have -ondemand suffix in the domain name.
Here is one simple example of Synapse SQL external table:. This is very simplified example of external table. You can use this setup script to initialize external tables and views in the Synapse SQL database. As an alternative, you can read this article to understand how to create external tables to analyze COVID Azure open data set.
This is everything that you need to do in serverless Synapse SQL pool. Now you need to configure a data source that references the serverless SQL pool that you have configured in the previous step. You can use the following script:. Now we are ready to create a proxy table in Azure SQL that references remote external tables in Synapse SQL logical data warehouse in order to access Azure storage files.
If you have used this setup script to create the external tables in Synapse LDW, you would see the table csv. YellowTaxi, csv. Every application needs three pieces of information for authentication:.
Once the resource is created, the Overview blade for the app will appear. On it you'll find the first piece of information needed for authenticating as this app-the Application ID a.
