Description

i follow this tutorial https://docs.microsoft.com/fr-fr/azure/sql-data-warehouse/load-data-wideworldimportersdw and when i try to import external table, i have this error :

EXTERNAL TABLE access failed due to internal error: 'Error occurred while accessing HDFS: Java exception raised on call to HdfsBridge_Connect. Java exception message: Parameters provided to connect to the Azure storage account are not valid.'
Does the wideworldimporters-tables still exist?

Research direction

Start by checking the linked Azure SQL Data Warehouse tutorial and whether the WideWorldImporters tables still exist. Reproduce the external-table import and verify the Azure storage account parameters involved in the HDFS connection; done means identifying whether the tutorial or sample data is outdated and documenting the required correction.
