If you're running Airbyte and have set up a local CSV destination, the data is written to a directory on the local filesystem of the host running Airbyte. By default, this location is
/tmp/airbyte_local
. If you want to change this location, you can modify the
LOCAL_ROOT
environment variable for Airbyte [source](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/destinations/csv#local-csv). To access the replicated data files, you can follow these steps: 1. Access the scheduler container using
docker exec -it airbyte-server bash
2. Navigate to the default local mount using
cd /tmp/airbyte_local
3. Navigate to the replicated file directory you specified when you created the destination, using
cd /{destination_path}
4. List files containing the replicated data using
ls
5. Execute
cat {filename}
to display the data in a particular file [source](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/destinations/csv#access-replicated-data-files). If you're running Airbyte on Windows with Docker backed by WSL2, you can refer to this [guide](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/locating-files-local-destination) for an alternative approach. Please note that the local CSV destination is not meant to be used on Kubernetes [source](https://discuss.airbyte.io/t/625).
