I couldn't find in documentation a way to export an RDD as a text file to a local folder by using python. Is it possible?

Any suggestion for automating this process without human interaction? Where can I get directories for a local machine or network drive?!

I get "file is too large" in some of the cells. In the others, there is no "download" option showing up at the bottom of the cells. (I have a json file)
