Create lakehouse tables with script

[cw88]

Hi, 

i use lakehouse tables as bronze layer, as destination for pipelines with source csv files. This lakehouse tables are the base for views in my warehouse. (create view warehouse.dbo.testview as select * from lakehouse.dbo.testtable...) 

I want to create a new workspace with my warehouse and lakehouse. The objects in the warehouse are created by sql scripts, but i can't create the views because the lakehouse tables don't exist.

Now the question: Is it possible to create empty lakehouse tables with a script? Or do i have to run the pipelines first to create the tables?

Thanks!

doens't work for you to run a notebook that creates tables?

%%sql
CREATE TABLE mytable (
    f1 INT,
    f2 VARCHAR(10)
)

CREATE TABLE mytable2 (
    f1 INT,
    f2 VARCHAR(10)
)

CREATE TABLE mytable3 (
    f1 INT,
    f2 VARCHAR(10)
)

@R1k91 : It works for me! I need to change some data types (bit -> boolean, datetime2 -> timestamp).

Thanks!
