Hi @Kyle Macdonald (ALT) ,
Thankyou for using Microsoft Q&A platform and posting your query.
As I understand your issue here is that you want to drop an external table in either dedicated SQL pool or Serverless SQL pool. But it's throwing error saying either table doesn't exist or you don't have sufficient permission.
In my understanding , the problem here might be that the window in which you are running the SQL script is not connected to the database where you actually have that table.
Please consider revisiting if you are connected to correct database by looking at the top of the panel. Check for the SQL pool as well as database.
If it looks good, try using the command before drop external table command :
Use <DatabaseName> ;
Hope this will help. Please let us know if any further queries.
