Can't Access Labs

[jsperson]

I have a new subscription to the labs and am enrolled in a labs enabled course (Data Ingestion with Lakeflow Connect). Nowhere can I find a link to access the lab material. The course looks identical to the free version. The screens in the "Accessing Vocareum Labs in Your Training" lesson do not align with the interface that I'm seeing. Please advise.

Note: apologies, I'm sure this has been asked 100 times, but I can't find an appropriate answer. Most questions seem to be from folks without an active subscription. 

Thank you!

Hello @jsperson!

It sounds like you have the Academy Labs subscription. In the course materials, right below the "Accessing Vocareum Labs in Your Training" slide, you should see a section titled SP Lab Environment. That’s the link you’ll need to open in order to access the lab environment of the course.

Thank you for the response! Here's a bit more to hopefully help out future folks.

The following is not currently accurately described in the "Accessing Vocareum Labs in Your Training" lesson.

When enrolled in a Lab course (typically indicated by a red badge), the lab is accessed through the lesson marked with “LTI.” Note that the current documentation may reference an older version of the interface, including outdated screenshots and descriptions.

In my case, the lab didn’t launch as expected on my first attempt, so I had to click the “Retake the lesson” button to restart it. Presumably the same button is used to access the labs in subsequent learning sessions. Also, for best results, I recommend launching the lab in a private/incognito browser window. If you’re logged into another Databricks session or have cached credentials, the lab’s single sign-on (SSO) may fail, resulting in a“No workspace found” error.

I realise that this has been asked more than 100 times now, but even with your refined description I can't find any link that will provide the lab environment for Data Ingestion with Lakeflow Connect.  I don't have anything in the course I'm watching that says "Accessing Vocareum Labs in your Training" so I don't even have an inaccurate place to start.  I can't see a lesson marked LTI.  I've tried relaunching the course in a private window - still nothing.  There's nothing in the 'Before we get started" section, nothing in the "Course Logistics Review" - I've looked everywhere.  Can anyone help?
