Can't view files of different types in databricks

Constantine — Sun, 06 Mar 2022 18:49:56 GMT

I am reading a Kafka input using Spark Streaming on databricks and trying to deserialize it. The input is in the form of thrift.

I want to create a file of .thrift format to provide schema but am unable to do it. Even if I create the file locally and upload it through git to databricks I can't see it. Is there a way to view/create files of .thrift extension or any other extension apart from sql, python, scala and R

@John Constantine , Please enable the "Files in Repos" feature:

Go to the Admin Console.
Click the Workspace Settings tab.
In the Repos section, click the Files in Repos toggle.
