I have a directory where I get files with the same multiple times. Will Auto-loader process all the files or will it process the first and ignore the rest

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.
