Research direction

Start by locating the Azure Machine Learning Python SDK entry points for input_dataset.to_path() and get_details(), then review the datastore and input-dataset documentation for the supported path API. Done means identifying and documenting whether the datastore path is exposed, with a minimal usage example or a clear limitation if it is not.

Description

I would like to get the datastore path e.g. datastores/storepath/paths/shares/...
instead of pathOnCompute from my inputDataSet. What API should I use?
I tried the following but none of them work:

paths = input_dataset.to_path() //the to_path() only get the file name list, it doesn't contain the path

get_details() only contains pathOnCompute as well

Thanks for your input
