Tensorboard comes pre-installed in the Q Blocks instances that are launched with Tensorflow based AI Images.

But if you have launched a Q Blocks instance with a different AI image other than Tensorflow based then you can simply install Tensorboard with the following command:

pip install tensorboard

Once you have launched the instance and Tensorboard is available in it, you can follow the next steps to get started with using it:

  1. Click on the "More info" button for your instance on the Instances page in your Dashboard.

  2. Copy the Extra Port and Host URL as shown in the image:

  3. Now, access your instance via Terminal or Jupyter Lab and run the following command in your instance to launch Tensorboard:

    tensorboard --logdir LOG_FOLDER --host=0.0.0.0 --port EXTRA_PORT

  4. Now head over to your browser and access your TensorBoard running at the following URL:

    http://HOST_URL:EXTRA_PORT

    For example:

    <aside> 💡 If we ran TensorBoard application in our instance with information provided in the above image then we would see it running at the following URL: http://jus.qblocks.cloud:56329

    </aside>

    This should help you get started with running applications like TensorBoard that needs access via browser in your instance.
