In-app documentation removal¶
The documentation available from within the application will be removed, with the execution date-dependent on whether you are a SaaS or self-managed user (see below). Instead of in-app docs, users will be pointed from the application to the public docs portal. The portal, launched in August 2021, provides a better user experience, including:
- An improved search experience.
- The ability for DataRobot to provide updates and corrections immediately instead of waiting for the weekly application deployment.
- The public site provides quick answers from anywhere (no login needed).
- The public site allows you to share links with non-DataRobot users.
There is no action required unless you have bookmarks to in-app documentation.
Note
This change will not impact the model documentation accessed from the model blueprint (/model-docs) or the Python or R client documentation available from ReadTheDocs and CRAN, respectively.
As of December 19, 2023, in-app documentation available from app.datarobot.com/docs will be removed from the product. Links in the application will instead point to the public documentation site. There is no action required unless you have bookmarks to in-app documentation.
For self-managed (on-premise) users, there will be a version-specific public docs portal made available when the removal goes into effect (e.g., https://9p2.docs.datarobot.com/). The default self-managed installation configuration will point to this portal. For air-gapped installations:
- If you have access to the Internet, DataRobot will provide your IT department the domain to add to the accepted list.
- For the small subset of users who do not have Internet access, DataRobot will provide a local version of the docs portal as part of DataRobot installation, and documentation will be accessible via in-app URLs. Note that in this configuration search will not be available as it is provided via a Cloud-based tool.
