How to run a downloaded Jupyter notebook on Google Colaboratory?

Question

I am using Google Colaboratory & github. I create a new Google Colab notebook, and I clone my github project into it using a simple !git clone <github_link> in the notebook.

Now, I have a Jupyter notebook in my github project that I need to run on Google Colab. How do I do that?

Answer 1

There is not a real need of downloading the notebook. If you already have your Notebook in a GitHub repo, the only thing you need to do is:

• Open your Notebook file on GitHub in any browser (So the URL ends in .ipynb).
• Change the URL from https://github/full_path_to_your_notebook to https://colab.research.google.com/github/full_path_to_your_notebook

And that should work.
