Unable to create a linked service for shared drive. When I use the entire path of the shared drive, the connection fails.
The entire path is \corp.pep.pvt\AppsCokldrp**\BIffsS\Acqdevwin\LATdfvAM_RsM_2
If I use only a part of it, the connection is successful
\corp.pep.pvt\Acqdevwin\
Any pointers on this would be helpful

Hello Sadiqh!
I am trying to create a linked service for shared drive on ADF.
So, when I use the entire path, the connection fails.
could you help me set up a linked service for shared drive through which we can migrate the data?
