@Idan Conley If you are using the same compute instance for your notebook then you should be able to access the files from your notebook. For example,

1. Open the terminal of your notebook, create a file
2. Hit refresh and the file should be listed in the directory which can be accessed from your notebook cell by using relative path.

If you are looking to use the files from a different VM that is not a compute instance then the option available is to use the Azure storage or file dataset that you can mount using the data actions -> Mount from the notebook UI.
