Hello @kavitha c ,

Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

This is an expected behaviour in the Azure Purview scanning.

Note: For ADLS Gen2, you can scope your scan to specific parts of the data source such as folders, subfolders, collections, or schemas by checking the appropriate items in the list.

For more details, refer to Azure Purview scanning best practices.
