When you query Hive tables on Databricks SQL, you get an error "Reading Hive table <table-name> is not supported on Databricks SQL. Only csv, json, avro, delta, parquet, orc, text, unity_catalog data sources are supported". This is because Hive based tables are not supported on Databricks SQL

The solution is to add few records/overwrite records either in parquet/orc or any desired format. Adding rows in parquet for instance will change the relation from "HiveTableRelation" to Parquet relation, which makes the table queryable in Databricks SQL
