>    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
>            Reporter: Jun Zhang
>            Assignee: Jun Zhang
>            Priority: Major

> In the documentation, there is a description:
> {quote}Once registered in a TableEnvironment, all tables defined in a ExternalCatalog can be accessed from Table API or SQL queries by specifying their full path, such as catalog.database.table.
> {quote}
> Currently, this is true only for source tables. For sink table (specified in the Table API or SQL), the users have to explicitly register it even though it is defined in a registered ExternalCatalog, otherwise "No table was registered under the name XXX" TableException would be thrown.
> It would be better keep consistent between source table and sink table, and the users would enjoy more convenient approach to inserting into sink tables.
