Thejas Nair commented on HIVE-23352:
------------------------------------

[~pgaref]

That is the intended behavior of SBA with external tables as well. Ie, authorize metadata access based on file permissions. Sure we would improve the error/log messages. What change are you suggesting ?

> Currently *StorageBasedAuthorizationProvider* returns messages (like below) about data paths even for _External_ tables where a drop command would just remove metadata. Lets make those messages more user-friendly.
