I'm using this code to read data from an ADLS Gen2 location. There are txt files present in sub-folders in the container.
df_stream = spark.readStream \
.format("cloudFiles") \
.option("cloudFiles.format", "text") \
.option('cloudFiles.includeExistingFiles', "false") \
.option('cloudFiles.modifiedAfter', '2025-09-09 00:00:00.000000 UTC+0') \
.format("text") \
.load(LANDED_PATH)
All the old files in the location I need to skip as they have been processed previously. I followed the documentation and used includeExistingFiles and modifiedAfter option but these aren't working. The old files are still getting processed. Why are these options not working?
