Harmeet Gill announces general availability of OneLake File Explorer:
Imagine this scenario: You’re a data engineer working with files on your local machine—CSV extracts, Excel files from the business, or intermediate outputs generated on your PC. Your goal is to run a Fabric pipeline, explore the data in a notebook, or train a model in Microsoft Fabric.
Traditionally, that means uploading files through a browser, writing scripts to push data into the lake, or coordinating with someone else who has access. It works—but it adds friction.
OneLake File Explorer removes that friction by bringing OneLake directly into Windows File Explorer.
It’s taken about 3 years to get to this point, but I’m glad to see it get past the preview hurdle.
