Set Up Workspace – Tutorial

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to create and configure your first workspace.

To follow along, we’ve provided a demo GitHub repository and registered a sample dataset in the Data Catalog.

Setup Instructions

1 - In your Dashboard, click Add and select New Workspace.

2 - Complete the workspace form. Since this is a demo, feel free to use the sample text provided in the README.md of the tutorial repository.

3 - Click Set Up Module to proceed.

4 - You may skip the Learning Objectives section. This field is primarily used for educational modules in classrooms or data challenges.

5 - In the Tags section, type Machine Learning and press Enter to add it. You can also add relevant Skills and Prerequisites (especially useful for educational workspaces).

6 - Under Additional Resources, add the following link: https://www.hpwren.ucsd.edu/. Press Enter to add the link as an additional resource.

7 - Click the Edit button next to Datasets. This will open a dataset search window.

8 - Search for HPWREN Weather, then click Add next to the HPWREN Weather Station Measurements dataset. Close the window once it's added.

9 - Click the Edit button next to Scripts. Paste the demo GitHub repository URL: https://github.com/pramonettivega/demo-workspace.git. Then click Add from external link. Close the window once the repository is added.

10 - Click Save Module to finalize and save your workspace. You can return at any time to edit your workspace and update its information, datasets, scripts, or resources.

Next Steps

If you've already created a Research Project, Classroom, or Data Challenge, you can now return to it and attach this newly created workspace.

Note

Any group member with access to the workspace can edit datasets, models, or scripts. However, only the workspace creator can modify the workspace form, including the description, instructions, tags, and additional resources.
