Colab

Google Colab is a cloud-based Python notebook that allows you to run your analysis without having to install anything on your local machine.

Get Started

The fastest way to get started with data science on OSO is to copy one of our notebooks on Google Colab.

You can also create a new notebook from scratch and run it in the cloud. Here's how to get started:

1. Create a new Colab notebook here.

2. Install pyoso:

   !pip install pyoso

3. Set up your API key:

   Add your API key to your environment variables. You can do this by clicking the key icon, naming your variable OSO_API_KEY, and pasting your API key in the value field.

   Then you can access the API key and authenticate with pyoso:

   from google.colab import userdata
   import pandas as pd
   from pyoso import Client
   
   OSO_API_KEY = userdata.get('OSO_API_KEY')
   client = Client(api_key=OSO_API_KEY)

   

4. Run a test query:

   query = """
   SELECT
     project_id,
     project_name,
     display_name
   FROM projects_v1
   WHERE lower(display_name) LIKE lower('%merkle%')
   """
   df = client.to_pandas(query)
   df.head()

That's it! You're ready to start analyzing the OSO dataset in a Google Colab notebook. Check out our Tutorials for examples of how to analyze the data.

tip

You can also download your Colab notebooks to your local machine and run them in Jupyter.
