Any user facing restful data source connection API to create a data source connection ?

[YangyangGao]

Does Fabric has any user facing restful data source connection APIs can be used to 

1. Post - Create a data source connection to connect to external blob storage (global or binding to a specific artifact ?).

2. Get - Get the data source connection via id/name to get the connection credentials to for code experience.

I want let anyone help for above questions, assume I am a data engineer and I want to access some my own external data sources via Fabirc Notebook but I don't want to explicitly hardcode the credentail info.  So it's better if we have rest API call can be use to create/get a data connection.

hey @v-yiruan-msft thanks but it actually can't solve my request. Actually want i want is a rest API which can be use to create a DMTS data connection. I think the answer is no based on my current investigation. I will raise the question internally, and mark this question done.
