Hi All,
We have a couple of jars stored in a workspace folder.
We are using init scripts to copy the jars in the workspace to the /databricks/jars path.
The init scripts do not seem to be able to find the files.
The scripts are failing saying the files could not be found.
```bash
#!/bin/bash
cp /Workspace/jars/file_name.jar /databricks/jars/
cp /Workspace/jars/file_name.jar /databricks/databricks-hive/
```
Can you please let me know if this is even possible ?
What is the correct path for a file in a Workspace Folder.
Thank you...
Edit:
Would be nice if someone from databricks can confirm if binary files from Workspace such as jars are accessible via init scripts, if yes what would their path be like ?

perhaps using tree -d? (probably you have to install it first)
or there is also something as the web terminal but I have never used that

Thank you for sharing the link. It was useful.
It is a little sad seeing that it is not possible having spent so much time analyzing and trying out various options.
I hope this is from a valid source. If so, I hope Databricks would consider adding this option seeing that many (well atleast 2 :)) are expecting this feature. Using CLI and API would just complicate things and not that practical.
