Hi

I have my CSV file in the Azure data lake gen 2. I created an external table for this CSV file in SQL Serverless Pool and I am able to read the table in the Azure Synapse notebook. However, getting the below error when I tried to read the external table with SQL server management studio.

Can anyone advise what is the issue here? CSV file is located in the data lake gen 2. My table name is FactJobs

    @Dhilip Subramanian please go through this link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/synapse-analytics/sql/resources-self-help-sql-on-demand

    As described there, common reasons are your Azure AD identity does not have the right RBAC permissions to access the file or maybe firewall is blocking the access.
