I was having difficulty getting the “Blue Book For Bulldozers” to work in Colab. I worked it out and wanted to post a solution in case anyone else has the same problem.
- Add the
!pip install
commands in cell 2. - Comment out
from kaggle import api
in cell 6 :
- Add ‘from kaggle import api’ after creating your json file:
-
Log in to Kaggle and join the “Blue Book for Bulldozers” competition (required to download data).
-
Add
parents=True
to the cell where you use the api to download Kaggle data:
It should now work.
This was a big time waster for me, so I hope this helps someone else struggling with it.
