    Dear @Shambhu Rai ,

    Look at this documentation page:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/databricks/files/

    The article provides multiple ways for interacting with files in the following locations:

    • Unity Catalog volumes
    • Workspace files
    • Cloud object storage
    • DBFS mounts and DBFS root

    Kind regards,

    Wilko
