Hi sridharplv,

How are you doing today? As per my understanding, Databricks does not support Iceberg reads for materialized views and streaming tables, and there’s no official preview or timeline shared publicly for enabling this support. Your workaround—using the DLT sink API to write into an external table that supports Iceberg reads—is smart and probably the best option available right now for append-only data. If you're looking to stay ahead, I’d recommend reaching out to your Databricks support or account team to express interest—they can notify you if a private preview becomes available. Until then, sticking to external tables for Iceberg compatibility is the most practical and supported approach.

Regards,

Brahma
