title: Databricks Filesystem - %sh ls vs %fs ls
body: <p>I have some files located in <code>%sh ls</code> and I would want to move those files into the filesystem of databricks (make them visible in <code>%fs ls</code>).</p>
  <p>Does any of you know what the difference is between <code>%sh ls</code> and <code>%fs ls</code>, and how do I move the files between them?</p>
  <p>I know we can utilize <code>dbutils.fs.cp</code> to move files that are already in <code>%fs ls</code> location.</p>
  <p>Any help or pointers is appreciated.</p>
