 If you are using hint based routing, the statement needs to be prepared before it is executed for the hint to be considered.  Some tools such as the SQL Console and HDBSQL always prepare statements before executing them.  For applications that do not do this, there is a setting called [routeDirectExecute](https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_HANA_CLIENT/f1b440ded6144a54ada97ff95dac7adf/4fe9978ebac44f35b9369ef5a4a26f4c.html) that can be enabled.

 The following steps walk through the process of exporting to and importing data using data lake Files with a SAP HANA Cloud, data lake Relational Engine database.  This step requires a productive SAP HANA Cloud data lake instance as data lake files is currently not part of free tier.  The following steps assume you have followed the first two sub steps in the previous step so that a data lake Files connection has been added to the SAP HANA database explorer.
