# Workspace

Robbie defines the Workspace as the directory and contents on the local machine, that will be transferred to the remote machine before the run starts. This can include files like:

* Python .py
* Requirements.txt
* Data files

Each project you work on will have its own Workspace.

There is a 500 MB transfer limit for workspace uploads. As a best practice, users should not place large files (e.g., datasets) in the workspace directory but download them on the remote machine.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.robbie.run/robbie-concepts/workspace.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
