Hey @mridultuteja 

To register an external location, you have to first create a Storage Credential, and then create the External Location.

This process allows Databricks to securely access data stored in Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 (ADLS Gen2), while maintaining fine-grained access control through Unity Catalog. External locations are used to govern access to files and directories outside of the managed Delta Lake tables.

There are different approaches to creating this through SQL or the UI, and I’m sharing a video that could help you understand it more easily šŸ™‚
