Provision your first server by opening a notebook (.ipynb), clicking Select Kernel in the top right and selecting Colab.
Either Auto Connect to a default Colab server or select New Colab Server to provision a specific machine type.
When prompted to sign in using Google, select Allow. You may be prompted to allow VS Code to open external links. Once you consent, your browser will open and you can select the account you wish to use and complete the OAuth sign-in flow.
Upon signing in, you should be automatically redirected back to VS Code. Depending on whether you have previously allowed your browser and VS Code to open links, you may be prompted before automatic redirection.
Once signed in, select the kernel you'd like to connect to.
Write some code!
A server can be removed by either:
- Opening the command pallet (
[Ctrl|Cmd]+Shift+P) and invoking the Colab: Remove Server command, or - Clicking the Colab button at the top of the notebook and selecting Remove Server.
Decided you want a different machine type? Doing work in parallel across notebooks? A new server can be provisioned by following the same steps detailed above (in the Hello World 🌎 section) and selecting the New Colab Server option.
