How to learn Palantir program

Hi I’m new to Palantir workshop and trying to practice with workshop. https://www.palantir.com/docs/foundry/workshop/getting-started. But, not sure where can I get the data set “Flight Alert”. Can anyone help me with that? Also, I have finished the deep dive courses in https://learn.palantir.com/page/course-catalog and trying to follow https://learn.palantir.com/page/training-tracks especially Application Developer. However, it when I try to download workshop https://build.palantir.com/platform/6d60ad76-44cf-47c7-9042-1dac05a0515d. I’m not sure where can I find a video or documentation that how this is made. Is that not provided?

You can find the same “build with AIP” Examples in your own Foundry instance where you have access, in the application of the same name, for example for your particular example, at /workspace/now/platform/6d60ad76-44cf-47c7-9042-1dac05a0515d

yes I can find the workshop but is there any documentation or videos that I can follow along so I can know how this workshop example was made?

You can go in “edit mode” for this given Workshop and “reverse engineer” from there, but indeed I’m not aware of a video for this particular example.

Once in Edit mode, you can open the lineage view (top left) to understand what are the objects/datasets/etc. used in this Workshop application.


You might want to look at Youtube videos explaining reference projects and describing other Workshop applications, as the principles remain the same.

This is great! Speaking from my personal experience, it’s honestly been really helpful to go through the step by step, as well as exploring the data lineages and pipelines of projects. It lets you see how the data is being held in foundry, as well as all the transforms being done onto them before they’re uploaded to the workshops. From what I’ve noticed, the pipelines for a lot of the Build with AIP tutorials seem to do a lot of the heavy lifting, while a lot of the workshops for them (especially the more beginner friendly ones) specialize more in data visualization.
