Can I turn off wandb when testing my code?
Yes, use wandb.init(mode=‘disabled’) or set WANDB_MODE=disabled to run W&B as a no-op.
How can I fetch these Version IDs and ETags in W&B?
Retrieve S3 version IDs and ETags from W&B artifact manifest entries using the artifact API.
How can I find the artifacts logged or consumed by a run? How can I find the runs that produced or consumed an artifact?
Navigate the W&B artifact graph to find which runs logged or consumed artifacts using the public API.
How do I best log models from runs in a sweep?
Create a single model artifact for the sweep where each version represents a different run.
How do I find an artifact from the best run in a sweep?
Sort sweep runs by a metric using the public API and download artifacts from the best performing run.
How do I log an artifact to an existing run?
Reinitialize a previous run with its ID and resume=‘allow’ to log new artifacts to it.
How do I save code?
Use save_code=True in wandb.init or version your code as an artifact to save it with a run.
How do I set a retention or expiration policy on my artifact?
Set a TTL (time-to-live) policy on artifacts to schedule automatic deletion of versions.
How much storage does each artifact version use?
Only files that changed between artifact versions use additional storage due to deduplication.
Is it possible to recover an artifact after it has been deleted with a run?
No. Artifacts deleted with a run are permanently removed and cannot be recovered.
Using artifacts with multiple architectures and runs?
Create separate artifacts per model architecture and log periodic checkpoints with log_artifact.
Where are artifacts downloaded, and how can I control that?
Artifacts download to the artifacts/ folder by default. Change it with a parameter or environment variable.
Who has access to my artifacts?
Artifacts inherit access permissions from their parent project based on its visibility setting.
Why can't I link my artifact to the registry?
Artifacts must be logged with a team entity, not a personal entity, to link to the registry.
