Upload local files¶

By uploading a local file via the Add data modal, you are both adding the dataset to your Use Case and registering it in the Data Registry. This method of adding data is a good approach if your dataset is already ready for modeling.

Before uploading a file, review DataRobot's dataset requirements for accepted file formats and size guidelines. See the associated considerations for important additional information.

To upload a local file:

1. In the Add data modal, click Upload.

   

2. Locate and select your dataset in the file explorer. Then, click Open.

   Supported file types

   Workbench supports the following file types for upload: .csv, .tsv, .dsv, .xls, .xlsx, .sas7bdat, .geojson, .gz, .bz2, .tar, .tgz, .zip.

3. DataRobot opens the Data tab, where you can monitor the progress of the dataset as it's registering in the Data Registry.

   When registration is complete, DataRobot displays the source, row count, feature count, and size.

Next steps¶

From here, you can:

• Add more data.
• View exploratory data insights for the dataset.
• Use the dataset to set up an experiment and start modeling.
