Amazon lists OTG's that claim to work on the Galaxy Tab S7.

Did you run into the problem in the MyFiles app? If so, try Cx Explorer instead.

I have 3- different USB-C host mode cables that all work fine on both my S7+, S4 and iPad Pro.  Nothing special about them.  MyFiles, x-plore and CX explorer all access mounted drives fine.  I will say that around Android 10 it seems that the ability to browse photos on a mounted drive with all of my photo apps, as well as gallery and Google Photos, disappeared.  The file manager apps can see them and display thumbnails.  However, most do not let you scroll through the photos full screen.  It seems only CX Explorer will also let you delete as you scroll full screen; a requirement when culling.
