Regardless of which specific Hadoop ecosystem application you are using, you can access data stored in ADLS using the URI starting with the adl:// prefix.

The URL structure is:

adl://<data_lake_store_name>.azuredatalakestore.net/dir/file

For example, to access "testfile" located in a directory called "testdir", stored in a data lake store called "mytest", the URL is:

adl://mytest.azuredatalakestore.net/testdir/testfile

The following FileSystem shell commands demonstrate access to a data lake store named mytest:

hadoop fs -ls adl://mytest.azuredatalakestore.net/

hadoop fs -mkdir adl://mytest.azuredatalakestore.net/testDir

hadoop fs -put testFile adl://mytest.azuredatalakestore.net/testDir/testFile

hadoop fs -cat adl://mytest.azuredatalakestore.net/testDir/testFile
