A notebook is a web-based interface to a document that contains runnable code, visualizations, and narrative text.

In this chapter, we will go over how to create, open, save, and upload Jupyter notebooks in a workspace on Dash Enterprise.

Creating a Jupyter Notebook

Dash Enterprise Workspaces use the same Python version in the Jupyter kernel as is used when running your Dash app from the terminal. You do not need to manually activate or create a Python kernel or virtual environment.

To create a new Jupyter notebook:

1. In your workspace, select the New Jupyter Notebook button.

2. Enter a name for your notebook; then select OK. The .ipynb extension is added automatically.

Uploading a Jupyter Notebook

If you have a notebook on your local machine that you would like to work with in Workspaces, drag it to the Explorer tab.

Opening a Jupyter Notebook File

To open your Jupyter notebook file, select it in the Explorer tab on the left of the screen. Jupyter notebooks have the extension .ipynb. When you open a notebook, its kernel is automatically selected.

Saving a Jupyter Notebook

Once you’re in your notebook, you can save changes by selecting File > Save from the main menu:
