# Create an Account

# ‎

# 1. Set up account.

1. Start by making an account here. ‎

   

‎

2. Verify your account with a phone number. This is required to enable the "Internet" option in your notebooks, which is necessary for downloading models and dependencies.

# Notebook Creation & Setup

# ‎

# 2. Clone Notebook

1. Go to Kaggle and click "Create" then "New Notebook" at the top left.

   

‎

2. Under your session's name click "File" then "Import Notebook".

   

‎

3. In the new window, click the "Link" tab and paste the following URL into the box: https://github.com/IAHispano/Applio/blob/main/assets/Applio_Kaggle.ipynb.

   

Click "Import" on the bottom right once you've done this.

4. When it's done importing it will display this text window.

   

‎

5. In the sidebar on the right, under "Session options", turn on the "Internet" switch. Make sure persistence is set to "Files and variables".

   

6. Under "Accelerator", select the "T4 x2" GPU.

   

‎ g: (Optional) To ensure your session doesn't time out during long training processes, you can enable "Save version". Go to the top right, click "Save version", and choose "Save & Run All (Commit)" from the dropdown. In the advanced settings, select "Always save output" for the notebook.

# Installation & Tunnels Setup

# ‎

# 3. Run Installation Cells

1. Start by running the first few cells of the notebook to install the necessary dependencies. The first cell will look like this:

   

# 4. Configure and Run Tunnels

1. The next cell is for setting up the tunneling service, which exposes the Applio interface to the internet.

2. Select a Tunnel: A tunnel securely exposes the application running in your private cloud environment to the public internet. The notebook gives you four different services to do this. Choose one from the Tunnel dropdown menu in the code cell.

   • Ngrok (Recommended & Default method)

     • How it works: This is the default and recommended method. Ngrok is a popular service that creates secure tunnels. It requires a free account and an authentication token. Note that the free tier has limitations on request rates which can sometimes cause interruptions.
     • Steps:
       1. Go to the Ngrok Dashboard to get your free authtoken.
       2. In the notebook cell, paste your token into the ngrok_authtoken field.
       3. Select "Ngrok" from the Tunnel dropdown.
       4. Run the cell. The public Ngrok URLs for Applio, Tensorboard, and the Filebrowser will be printed in the output once the server is ready. Click on them to access the services.

   • **Gradio + LocalTunnel (No Account & Password Protected) **

     • How it works: It uses Gradio's built-in tunnel for the main Applio interface and LocalTunnel for the Tensorboard and Filebrowser services. It does not require any external accounts or tokens.
     • Steps:
       1. Select "Gradio + LocalTunnel" from the Tunnel dropdown.
       2. Run the code cell. Wait for the output to show the public URLs.
       3. Click the Gradio Public URL to open the Applio UI.
       4. To access Tensorboard or the Filebrowser, click their respective LocalTunnel Public URL. A new page will ask for a password.
       5. Copy the LocalTunnels Password from the notebook output and paste it into the password prompt in your browser.

   • LocalTunnel (No Account, Password Protected)

     • How it works: LocalTunnel is another free service that doesn't require an account. For security, it generates a unique URL that is protected by a password.
     • Steps:
       1. Select "LocalTunnel" from the Tunnel dropdown.
       2. Run the cell.
       3. The output will display three public URLs (for Applio, Tensorboard, and Filebrowser) and a LocalTunnels Password below them.
       4. Click any of the URLs. A new page will ask for a password.
       5. Copy the password from the notebook output and paste it into the password prompt in your browser to access the service.

   • Horizon (Fast, Requires Account & ID)

     • How it works: Horizon is another tunneling service that requires a free account and a personal ID for authentication.
     • Steps:
       1. Go to the Horizon Dashboard and sign up. On the second step of the setup, you will see a command like hrzn login YOUR_ID. Copy that YOUR_ID part.
       2. In the notebook cell, paste this ID into the horizon_id field.
       3. Select "Horizon" from the Tunnel dropdown.
       4. Run the cell. The first time you use it, the output may ask you to authorize the connection by clicking a link (https://hrzn.run/dashboard/settings/cli-token-requests/...). Click this link and approve the request in your Horizon dashboard.
       5. The public Horizon URLs for all services will then be printed in the output. Click them to access the UI.

3. Once you have configured your chosen tunnel, run the cell to start the services.

# Using Applio

# ‎

# 5. Accessing the Links

1. After the setup cell finishes running, it will output several public URLs. These links give you access to the Applio interface, Tensorboard for monitoring, and a file browser.

   

2. Click the Applio Public URL to open the user interface. For all subsequent steps, including application settings and model usage, please continue by following the Local PC guide.
