Granting user access to DBFS

New Contributor III

Hello,

I can't find any reference in the documentation on how to grant users access to the DBFS. As an admin, I can read any file on DBFS using dbutils. However, non-admin users receive this error when trying to access:image (1).png

How can I grant a non-admin user access to DBFS?
