Hi,

 

According documentation, you may try the saveAsTextFile method:

http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/programming-guide.html

saveAsTextFile(path)Write the elements of the dataset as a text file (or set of text files) in a given directory in the local filesystem, HDFS or any other Hadoop-supported file system. Spark will call toString on each element to convert it to a line of text in the file.
