v2.4.0

🔆 Release highlights

Import Hub datasets from the UI

import_hub_dataset.mp4

In this release, we’ve focused all of our efforts in bringing you a new feature to import datasets from the Hugging Face Hub directly within our UI, making it easier and faster to get started with your AI projects.

To get started, click on the “Import dataset from Hugging Face” button and paste the repo id of the dataset you want to use. Argilla will process the columns of the dataset and map them to Fields or Questions. Then, you can add more questions or remove any unnecessary fields by selecting the “No mapping” options. All the changes you make will be automatically reflected in the preview.

Once you’re happy with the result you simply need to provide a name for your dataset, select a workspace and (if applicable) a split. Then, Argilla will start importing the dataset.

Note

If your dataset is bigger than 10k records, at this stage Argilla will only import the first 10k. You can import the rest of the dataset using the Argilla SDK: simply click on the “Import data” button in the dataset and use the code snippet provided.

If you want to make extra changes, like customizing the titles of your fields and questions, don’t worry, you can always go back to the Dataset Settings page after the dataset has been created.

Learn more about this new feature in our docs.

Deploy an Argilla Space directly from the SDK

If you're working from the SDK and don't want to leave to start your Argilla server, you can start an Argilla deployment on Spaces with a simple line of code:

import argilla as rg

client = rg.Argilla.deploy_on_spaces(api_key="12345678")
