Once you successfully log in, select the University At Albany (SUNY) as your organization, and then select your team. If you do not have a team, please reach out to ITS to add you to your lab's team. You may still access resources, but your lab's data and workspace will be unavailable until you are placed into their team.
Generating an API Key
In order to upload your data and even use the nvidia command line, you will need to generate an API Key. This key allows you to log into your workspace as yourself, so it is important to not lose it or give out to people.
Once you have selected a team and logged in, you will be on the Base Command homepage. On the left hand side, select 'BASE COMMAND' and from the dropdown, select 'Dashboard' to bring yourself to the overview of the system.
Scroll to the bottom right and click 'Setup' in the section labeled 'Download CLI and Generate API Key.
On the next page, click 'Generate API Key'. Save this key to a text file for easy access on your machine. If you lose your key you can generate a new one on this page again. Next you will install the Nvidia CLI
