Jark Wu commented on FLINK-24567:
---------------------------------
[~airblader], I think it just derives the schema, but still need users to fill
the options, for example:
{code}
CREATE TABLE fs_sink
WITH (
'connector' = 'filesystem'
'path' = '/path/to/file'
) AS SELECT * FROM source;
{code}
There is a discuss thread for the CTAS syntax as well:
