Read adls .pdf file through formrecognizer

Question

Hi, I have been trying to read a pdf file using formrecognizer using python/pyspark inside databricks notebook. I need help with reading the file syntax is only letting read file inside a url. When I try to pass the adls path I get "no such file or directory" error in this line " poller = document_analysis_client.begin_analyze_document_from_url("prebuilt-layout", formUrl)". Please help. Thanks in advance.

    import os  
    from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential  
    from azure.ai.formrecognizer import DocumentAnalysisClient  
      
    endpoint = "endpoint"  
    key = "key"  
  
formUrl = "file:\\dev-app\data\zPathology.pdf"  
  
    document_analysis_client = DocumentAnalysisClient(  
        endpoint=endpoint, credential=AzureKeyCredential(key)  
    )  
          
    poller = document_analysis_client.begin_analyze_document_from_url("prebuilt-layout", formUrl)  
    result = poller.result()

@CzarR Thanks for the question, Can you try using the begin_analyze_document() in this case with a valid path to the file.
