I see...
Current (and this will change soon) the entire delta is stored in a single file, so there is no real way to download a "subset" of the data, only a parent version 😞

Lets say that this small dataset has a ID ....

Yes this would be exactly the way to do so:

` param ={'dataset': small_train_dataset_id_here}
task.connect(param)

dataset_folder = Dataset.get(param['dataset']).get_local_copy()
... Locally it will use the small_train_dataset_id_here ` , then when launched remotely you can change the new parameter "dataset" to the full dataset ID, the code will not change, as task.connect is a two way function, when running locally it stored the content on the UI, when running remotely it takes the parameters from the UI and puts them back to the dict 🙂
wdyt ?
