How can I add additional information, e.g. debug samples, or scalar to the data to be shown in the UI?  Logger.current_logger() is not working

Yes 🙂
dataset.get_logger() to the rescue

Sorry my bad, you are looking for:
None

Closing the data doesnt work: dataset.close() AttributeError: 'Dataset' object has no attribute 'close'

Hi @<1523714677488488448:profile|NastyOtter17> could you send he full exception ?

Not much more:
Uploading compressed dataset changes (1 files, total 7.56 KB) to None
Upload completed (7.56 KB)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/mnt/c/Users/tbudras/Documents/local-development-code/test_data.py", line 11, in <module>
dataset.close()
AttributeError: 'Dataset' object has no attribute 'close'

Which clearml version are you using ?

clearml 1.0.2

Thanks for your help Martin!

Can you test with the latest RC:
pip install clearml==1.0.3rc0

There is not dataset.close () 🙂
