Databricks Free Edition - Accessing files in S3

[libpekin]

Hello,

Attempting read/write files from s3 but got the error below. I am on the free edition (serverless by default). I'm  using access_key and secret_key. Has anyone done this successfully? Thanks!

Directly accessing the underlying Spark driver JVM using the attribute '_jsc' is not supported on serverless compute. If you require direct access to these fields, consider using a single-user cluster. For more details on compatibility and limitations, check:

I do not think you can read files from S3 in free edition. The best way of playing with free edition, upload the data in volumes and develop your pipelines.
