Hi @<1784754456546512896:profile|ConfusedSealion46> , in that case you can simply use add_external_files to the files that are already in your storage. Or am I missing something?
I think it is an issue of confusion here. I thought that using the add_external_files causes the clearml server to download the dataset to the server. After investigating through the file system, it turns out that the server save it as a link in state.json
