External Table in ADX
Hi, I'm trying to create an external table in ADX which uses a Synapse Analytics (SA) database view (called undelivered). The undelivered view itself is query data from a Cosmos analytical store I've create a user defined idenity Added the identiy to the ADX cluster, SA and Cosmos Updated the ADX database: .alter-merge cluster policy managed_identity[ { "ObjectId": "a3d7ddcd-d625-4715-be6f-c099c56e1567", "AllowedUsages": "ExternalTable" } ] Created the database users in SA -- Create a database user for the ADX Managed Identity CREATE USER [adx-synapse-identity] FROM EXTERNAL PROVIDER; -- Grant read permissions ALTER ROLE db_datareader ADD MEMBER [adx-synapse-identity]; GRANT SELECT ON OBJECT::undelivered TO [adx-synapse-identity]; From within SA I can "SELECT * FROM undelivered" and the correct information is returned But when I come to create the external table in ADX: .create-or-alter external table MyExternalTable ( Status: string ) kind=sql table=undelivered ( h@'Server=tcp:synapse-xxxxx.sql.azuresynapse.net,1433;Database="Registration";ManagedIdentityClientId=<key>;Authentication=Active Directory Managed Identity;' ) with ( managed_identity = "<key>" ) I get the error: Managed Identity 'system' is not allowed by the managed_identity policy for usage: ExternalTable So even with me specifying the managed identity I want to use it is still trying to use the system one. How can I get the external table created with the correct managed identity? Any questions please just ask Thanks
