Hello @yamuna devi sigireddi ,

Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

Unfortunately, you cannot use AzCopy in Databricks.

In Azure Databricks, you can use Databricks Utilities to copy from one mounted storage account to another mounted storage accounts.

dbutils.fs.help("cp") => cp(from: String, to: String, recurse: boolean = false): boolean -> Copies a file or directory, possibly across FileSystems

/**  
* Copies a file or directory, possibly across FileSystems.  
*  
* Example: cp("/mnt/my-folder/a", "dbfs://a/b")  
*  
* @param from FileSystem URI of the source file or directory  
* @param to FileSystem URI of the destination file or directory  
* @param recurse if true, all files and directories will be recursively copied  
* @return true if all files were successfully copied  
*/  
cp(from: java.lang.String, to: java.lang.String, recurse: boolean = false): boolean
