How to write/update in Data warehouse table using Notebook
Hi FabianSchut, I think frithjof_v is correct here. I just tried to create a shortcut in data warehouse and there was no option to create it. Then I created a table in data warehouse and also created its shortcut in the lakehouse. I can read the data, but when I tried to overwrite the tabe via notebook, it threw an error. It confirms I can't write into the datawarehouse using notebook (same way as lakehouse table).
"Operation failed: "Forbidden", 403, PUT"
It's not possible to create a shortcut in a Warehouse
There is an Idea for that:
Lakehouse shortcuts available in Warehouse also

You can use cross-database queries, though.
However it's not exactly the same (you can't use it in a Direct Lake semantic model, I think. Admittedly, I haven't tried.).
And it's exposed to the potential for SQL Analytics Endpoint sync delay.
My apologies, you are both correct frithjof_v digitalbrain. There are no shortcuts in Warehouse (yet).
