File Source Type Behavior in Airbyte

Summary

User inquires about the file reading behavior of Airbyte when using the File source type, specifically whether it reads files from the oss_local_root volume or the /tmp/airbyte_local directory on the airbyte-server container.


Question

Hello! When using File (CSV, JSON, Excel, Feather, Parquet) source type , does airbyte read the files stored in the oss_local_root volume? or the files found in the /tmp/airbyte_local directory on the airbyte-server container? I’m noticing the files in the directory dont really matter and it only cares about the files in the volume but i just want to make sure.
