Sharing a Colab notebook - EDSL Documentation

First use Colab setup to install EDSL and configure any required credentials. Sharing a notebook is separate from saving the survey, job, and completed results; preserve those objects with Saving objects.

Download and inspect the notebook

In Colab, download the notebook as an .ipynb file. Review its code, cell outputs, and embedded data before sharing. Remove credentials and any private data that should not be included. From an environment with EDSL and that file available:

from edsl import Notebook

notebook = Notebook(path="study.ipynb")

Replace study.ipynb with the downloaded file’s path. This reads the notebook locally; it does not execute its cells.

Upload supporting material

With Expected Parrot authentication configured:

info = notebook.push(
    description="Notebook accompanying the study",
    visibility="private",
)

This uploads the notebook. Retain the returned identifier and configure sharing deliberately. See Notebooks and scripts for updating, downloading, and sharing notebook objects.
