Copy Sample Dataset
Now that you have created your own project, you will need a dataset inside your project which you will use to train your model.
Under "Sample Project", click the "Datasets" button.
Inside "Sample Project", you will find a sample dataset called "Coffee Cup". You will be copying this dataset to train a model that detects coffee cups on images.
Copy Dataset
To copy a dataset, navigate to the dataset you would like to copy. On the dataset card, select "Copy Dataset" from the dataset options as shown below.
This will open a new dialog for the user to specify the dataset source and destination. The destination will be the location of the copied dataset. The source is the current location of the dataset. The source is set by default to the current dataset card you've selected. In the example below, the source is set to the "Coffee Cup" dataset from "Sample Project". The copied dataset will be placed as specified in the destination fields. By default a new dataset container will be created in the specified project. However, you can also create a dataset container before copying and specify this dataset container in the destination fields.
Once you have made your selection, click "Apply" at the bottom right to start the copy process.
You can navigate to the copied dataset by clicking the "Project" button and then clicking on the "Datasets" button on your project as shown below.
The progress for the dataset copy will be shown on the dataset card.
Once the copying process completes, the frames and the annotations would have been copied.

Tag Dataset
To maintain the current state of the dataset, tag the dataset with a version.
Click on the dataset options at the top right of the dataset card (three vertical dots). Then click the "History" button.
Add a new tagged version of the dataset by clicking the + green button on the right of the page as shown.
Specify the tag version and tag description. Click "Create Tag" to tag the dataset.
The new dataset tag will appear under "Version History" of this page. You can go back to the dataset card by clicking the "Back to Datasets" button.
Once you have copied and tagged the dataset, you can move forward to exploring the dataset to look at the images and annotations inside the dataset.
