After I vacuum the tables, do i need to update the manifest table and parquet table to refresh my external tables for integrations to work?

Manifest files need to be re-created when partitions are added or altered. Since a VACUUM only deletes all historical versions, you shouldn't need to create an updated manifest file unless you are also running an OPTIMIZE.
