Re: vocareum lab access

It turns out that the link is there but the instructions are hard to read and out of date. It is in the next section along with ITL in tiny font. Worse is that the second lesson into a lab the vital csv to be uploaded is to a broken link and the back up method is alo broken so the Partner Data Analysis Course is impossible to complete. I have complained to support but not heard anything back.

The course is the Databricks Data Analysis course for Partners: https://partner-academy.databricks.com/learn/courses/2919/data-analysis-with-databricks/lessons

The missing csv is here: https://files.training.databricks.com/courses/data-analysis-with-databricks-sql/data.csv

It is linked from this page: https://labs.vocareum.com/main/main.php?m=clabide&mode=s&asnid=3254806&stepid=3254807&hideNavBar=1

The broken failsafe is the following:

-- Create or replace the table 'csv_bronze' to read the raw CSV data into a temporary table

CREATE

OR REPLACE TABLE csv_bronze AS

SELECT

*

FROM

read_files(

"/Volumes/dbacademy/dawd_v2/importing/data.csv",

format => "csv",

header => false,

skipRows => 1,

escape => '"',

-- reads the quoted json string as a single column

inferSchema => false -- I'll create my own schema in the next query

);

Is it possible to fix this or provide the file as I can't complete the training without it.
