Location isn't required for external tables for hive. Example of query:
Spec:
https://hive.apache.org/docs/latest/language/languagemanual-ddl/?utm_source=chatgpt.com#external-tables
It says:
The EXTERNAL keyword lets you create a table and provide a LOCATION so that Hive does not use a default location. It's not very clear, but if location is not specified, it will provide default location.
