Team Collaboration

If you need to collaborate with others on a project, you can request a team name from the administrator, such as team_trump.

The administrator will create a directory /home/team_trump, which only you and your teammates have access to. You can place project files in this directory. For example:

home
  \- team_trump
    \- 2022_us_election
If you cannot find the folder in Jupyter Lab

Reason

Usually, your Jupyter Lab is launched in your own home directory, where you can only see files in your account's root directory.

Solution

Run the following command:

ln -s /home/team_trump/2022_us_election ~/2022_us_election

After executing the above command, the project folder should appear in your account's root directory, and accessing it will automatically switch to /home/team_trump/2022_us_election.

By creating a symbolic link, you can create an entry point for the project folder anywhere.

ln -s [SOURCE] [TARGET]
