Why can't NOT NULLs be used in serverless external tables?

NOT NULL is not allowed for external table columns.

    Hi

    In synapse while we create an external table with a primary key, we need to mention as non clustered and not enforced.

    Please check this SO thread which discusses the same issue.

    Hope it helps.
