Using Built-in Apps
Your workspace comes equipped with two Built-in Applications, Jupyter Notebook and RStudio.
To run either of these, navigate to the App tab and click on the Name, Display picture or Play button of the App you want to start. For more information on how to navigate on the App tab and the App run page, see the Navigating the App tab article. When you start an App, it will open in a new tab and you will be able to use it from there.
Using the apps
Both Jupyter notebook and R Studio support individual instances meaning that even if someone else is using that App in the workspace at the same time as you, it will not have any impact on your ability to use the App. You will not be limited by other users in the workspace using, starting or stopping the same App.
RStudio uses R version 4.3.1 and any packages that are installed for that version by one user will be able to be used by all other users of that workspace when they are running the RStudio App.
Please note that the default working directory within the Apps will be set to your Workspace files directory.
More information about using the Jupyter notebook app can be found here
Working on the same file in the Apps
If two users are working on the same file, the Apps will react differently when one of the users save their version of that file. If you are working on the file in RStudio and another user saves an updated version of that same file, the changes will populate directly into the file that you have open. Please note that RStudio does not notify you when this happens.
In Jupyter Notebook, the file you have open will not update if someone else saves a new version of that file. You will instead get a warning when you go to save the file, letting you know that the file has been changed. Jupyter Notebook then gives you the option to reload the file to the new version, overwrite the new version, or cancel the attempt to save the file. You can then save the file under a different name if you want to keep both the changes you made, and the changes the other workspace user made.
We are looking to add more Built-in Apps in the future. If you have a tool that you would like to use that is not included, please let our service desk know on servicedesk@aridhia.com and we will investigate if it's possible to add it for you.
