Explanation:

Step 1: Create an external data source
You can create external tables in Synapse SQL pools via the following steps:
CREATE EXTERNAL DATA SOURCE to reference an external Azure storage and specify the credential that should be used to access the storage.
CREATE EXTERNAL FILE FORMAT to describe format of CSV or Parquet files.
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE on top of the files placed on the data source with the same file format.
Step 2: Create an external file format object
Creating an external file format is a prerequisite for creating an external table.
