Data explorer in the community edition

Hi,

Does anyone know how to access data explorer in the community edition? I would like to have an overview of what files are saved in the FileStore. This is what happens when I select "Data" in the left-hand side menu

@Konrad Kawka​ : The Data Explorer is not available in the Community Edition of Databricks. However, you can still access the FileStore using the Databricks CLI or the Databricks API.

databricks fs ls dbfs:/FileStore/

To access the FileStore using the Databricks API, you can use the dbutils.fs.ls() command in a Databricks notebook or script

dbutils.fs.ls("dbfs:/FileStore/")
