How to Import (use) Kaggle datasets in Google Colab? 

For those who are starting in the updated Kaggle site. The API command might not be available on the "Data" card so what you have to do is click on 3 dots, right after the "Download" button on top right of your dataset. Once you click that you will see an option "Copy API command". Click that and you are good to go!

I was struggling for this for quite a long time..Thank you very much for the video..it helps a lot for the new researcher in the DL field.

Perfect tutorial for Kaggle--->Colab. Thank you

Very Helpful ! Thank you ! Summary commands : 1- Install kaggle !pip install kaggle 2- Upload you API token kaggle.json: from google.colab import files files.upload() 3- Create a directory kaggle , move the kaggle.json to kaggle directory , change permissions to the file : !mkdir ~/.kaggle !mv kaggle.json ~/.kaggle/ !chmod 600 ~/.kaggle/kaggle.json 4- Copy API command in dataset section in Kaggle , (ADD '!' at the first of the command) Enjoy the ride as your data models take flight! 😍

Thanks for the tutorial but what if the chosen dataset doesn't contain the API command to copy into the colab..?

Your tutorial is really so much helpful to me. It means a lot. Thanks for sharing such wonderful content to us

Very efficient, helpful and easy to understand Thank you!

Great work simple and to the point very basic steps are addressed which are not found in many videos.you have solved my big problem.thank you sir

Crisp & Precise explanation, Thank you! 👌🙌

Thank you so much sir! It is my first time participating on a competition in Kaggle

Such a clear and efficient explanation..!! Thanks man..!!

Thank you so much sir.... U made me understand this method in such a easy way.🙏🏻

sir, but when i am creating a direc it shows you can not creat any direc, now what should i do for this

Very nice explanation, easy to understand and where is the code in the description.? I couldn't find

Thank you Sir. U save my life❤

That's made my day. Thank you so much sir. Worked smoothly. 💙

Very nice session sir. Thankyou for your detailed video.

It appears Kaggle's interface has changed a bit already since January, and I'm at loss at where the command line for this dataset it... Edit: never mind, found it(on side, 3 dots["copy API command"])!

Saved my day, 💕

Very interesting... something very useful for beginners in coding

Hi sir thank you so much for this information But while I am running the step 2 that is "*from google.colab import files files.upload" I can't get "Choose Files" option in my laptop what I can do? and error raised it's shown

after running command " ! kaggle competitions download -d 'name-of-dataset'" it is generating Error 403: forbidden

Superb video. so so so much helpful. thank you

Couldn't download the dataset. i'm getting 403 - Forbidden as the output. can you please explain why?

Thank you for your time, help me a lot!

Love this video Thankyou so much Shriram garu

Thanks a lot for this helpful information...

God bless you Shriram, brilliant!

Thanks. That was very helpful. If I had watched it 1 day ago, it would save from wasting 2 gb data and a day of headache. 😄

Thanks a lot sir, this is very helpful

colab tends to disconnect when not used for a longtime. Do we have to run all the commands and upload the api every single time the colab notebook disconnects?

Thank you so much!! Very well explained👊

AWESOME! THANKS ❤

very helpful,thank you

Thank you very much . And how to carry out the reverse process, that is to say convert a Colab application to Kaggle? That's what's important, because notebooks are not the same.

Thank you so much!!

What if the chosen dataset doesn't contain the API command to copy into the colab..?

Thank you so much for this great tutorial, You tell that to paste the commands in the description box, I could not get it. I got some errors in it please paste the commands if you can.

great tutorial, thank you!

Thanks for insights bro. Notes for the commands , can't seem to find it. Will be great to have 😊

chmod: cannot access '/root/.kaggle/kaggle.json': Not a director not getting this

Sir I have question, I was trying to create a kaggle directory, but I was unable to generate it. Could you please suggest me how I can generate it ?

Thanks for this tutorial.

Please do another one now setting it inside the Kaggle notebook itself any directions would be appreciated.

thank you so much. it's really working!!!!!

It appears cannot create directory '/root/.kaggle ' : file exists Help me sir what may be the reason???

thanks man, very helpful, have a nice day:)

Thanks a lot, it helped me a lot !!

thank u sir. very much needed and useful

what if the data set does not have the code needed for download

perfect video thank you

Should we do all the steps again in other collab file to download another dataset or can we directly copy the API command and run it to download another set of data ?

Thanks for the great session

Hi I am facing "403 forbidden" How can i resolve. ? I tried !pip install kaggle --upgrade and !pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall --no-deps kaggle.... Still same

ut this is for a competition, what about normal datasets?

Thank you so much sir! You should create a tip char and I will happily donate!

Great video sir, from tamil

Thanks so much!

love you!

you are amazing thank you very much

perfect, thanks for the explanation

You deserve more credit

Man, thank you very much!

nice work sir !

Very Nice Sir ..Very Nice

I want to import great barrier reef (GBR) dataset into colab , GBR dataset has few folders of different types of data files like images ,videos, csv, apis , zip files .. I used your method but in my colab I am only able to see few 100 images but in dataset there are 23000 images, what should I do to get entire data in colab?

Thank you sir, appreciate it

for each seperate file we need to do this it is one time and we can create n no of new python files

Perfect!! Thank you!

Thank you very much for the explanation... Actually, I came here for a problem that's probably trivial with respect to all this, but I couldn't solve it. In a Kaggle code I found the initial instruction: from shutil import copyfile copyfile(src = "../input/lrp-scripts/utils.py", dst = "../working/utils.py") For sure I have to update those paths, but how can I do it? Thank you very much!

thankful to u sir .. .. it's helps

what happens if the process doesn´t code successfully

Wonderfull explanation. Do you have any video with all the process: importing from kaggle o Drive until the training results?. Thank you so much ♥♥♥♥♥

Hello Sir, very helpful video you have done. Can you share that word document ?

This is so useful!

Excuse me Mr Vasudevan. Any chance you could share that word with the step by step in the description of this video? Thanks!

I'm getting the problem while using this dataset. I'm getting this error "403 - Forbidden - You must accept this competition's rules before you'll be able to download files.". How to solve this problems anyone can tell to me

thank you so much sir with clear explanation ca we have continuation video after importing dataset in colab...

i am not able to see my dataset when i try to get it from kaggle

Cannot stat kaggle.json no such file or directory

Hello Sir, I got this message for the last command to get data in collab Kernel log downloaded to /path/to/dest/eda-to-prediction-dietanic.log instead of data in the file folder. can you tell me why so

very helpful video brother

great work sir

do we have to use ( ! ) this before importing datasets

Thanks for your help

Why can I not find an API command for datasets, only competitions? I want to use a dataset

after unzipping the folders how could i import this to be used in my model?

Thanks this is great

Do i have to go through all these steps everytime i want to import datasets from kaggle in colab ?? or just doing it for one time is enough for using datasets

how much data set can we upload my data set is 42GB is it work for me

How to convert it into dataset?

Any suggestions for : 401 - Unauthorized

excelent video!

I have copied the API and pasted it in the code section. After execution, kernel log downloaded to '.log'. Like this, it is showing. Sir, please comment how to solve this?

while creating folder i am getting msg like mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/root/’: File exists. please suggest sir

nice. next part show me the OUTPUT sir.
