In order to run crandas locally, it is necessary to connect to the engine via a connection file. The connection file can be downloaded through the platform. Here you will find a step by step guide on how to do it:
1. After logging in, first make sure you have the role of analyst in the system. Then, go to Settings, in the top-right corner.
2. Click on System.
3. Here you will see information about the version of the platform and engine of your current environment. In the section 'crandas connection file' you will see two buttons to the right. Since we want to use the file to connect to the environment, click on Connection file.
4.Your file explorer will open, allowing you to choose a folder to store your connection file (vdlconn-file).
💡Recommended location for storing the connection file (to ensure it can be accessed by your scripts):
-
Mac/Linux:
~/.config/crandas
-
Windows:
%userprofile%\.config\crandas
To continue with the local connection process, please refer to our Installation guide (Python local) located in the crandas documentation.
