I am trying to create a Delta table and it seems the Delta table requires additional permissions on the parent folder of the table. The command failed telling permission errors. I tried to create a parquet table and it works fine.

Autoloader has an option - "cloudFiles. allowOverwrites". This determines whether to allow input directory file changes to overwrite existing data. This option is available in Databricks Runtime 7.6 and above.

Not everything is exposed as a function for Python or Java/Scala. Some operations are SQL-only, like spark.sql("TRUNCATE TABLE delta.`<path>`")
