I am experimenting w/ the Databricks cloud deployed Spark service. I created some data and would like to download it to my machine rather than lose it. This post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49019706/databricks-download-a-dbfs-filestore-file-to-my-local-machine/49021261#49021261 suggested going to the URL -> https://community.cloud.databricks.com/files whilst logged in to databricks (I am using community edition by the way).

So, I tried that URL and I got back a plain text document with the content "1". That was not so useful. So, I then looked up the instructions for using the Databricks CLI, and according to this page -> https://docs.databricks.com/api/latest/authentication.html#token-management I need to set up a personal access token, which I generate by clicking on the 'Access Tokens' tab of Account Settings screen. However, I found no 'Access Tokens' tab.

So, I'm wondering:

• can I use the Databricks CLI to download the files I created (or is this only available for paid users) ?
• if it is possible to use the CLI, then how do I generate an access token ?
• If the CLI is not the way to go, then what is the proper URL to use to view the FileStore contents ?

Just for completeness sake, I will note that when I did an 'ls' of /FileStore, I found that folder to be non-empty:

    %fs  ls /FileStore/

      dbfs:/FileStore/chris.txt       chris.txt       20044
      dbfs:/FileStore/tables/
                etc etc..
