- The article explains how to create a table from a CSV file loaded into the Lakehouse without coding.
- By navigating to the filename in the Lakehouse and selecting 'New table', a table can be created with the file's name as the default table name.
- There is no control over column types when using this method, which may cause issues for some files.
- The table is stored in delta format, and column types cannot be changed from the view.
- Updating a table can be done by selecting 'Existing table' instead of 'New table' and deciding whether to append the data or overwrite it.
- This method is ideal for clean, well-structured CSV files and slow-moving dimension tables.
- More complex files may require other methods like dataflows or notebooks for transformation.
- It is recommended to ensure the date format is YYYY-MM-DD to avoid any issues with date formatting.
