# Getting and Uploading Assignments

## Step 1: Accept Assignment

In order to begin working on your assigned coding project, you must first accept the GitHub assignment by clicking on the corresponding assignment link provided by your instructor. It will require you to log into your GitHub account (if you do not have one, see [Getting Started - Create a GitHub account](/archive/jupyterhub/github-classroom-student-guide/overview.md#step-0-create-a-github-account)). Once logged in, click the Accept this assignment and your repository will be automatically generated.

## Step 2: Copy Assignment URL

Once your assignment repository has been created, you must get the exact URL to the assignment you wish to download to the hub. To do this, either a) click the corresponding link for where your assignment has been created (see image above), or b) navigate to your github repository list, then:

1. Navigate to the assignment you wish to work on in GitHub
2. Click the"Clone or download" button <img src="https://2883398872-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LLCCXzhzhO5fUT5UTHC-887967055%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-d8c7c5c35dca0f5d03dd126bbb9fc2a218ad5a73%2Fimage%20(12).png?alt=media" alt="" data-size="original">
3. Copy the Git URL to your clipboard by clicking the clipboard button <img src="https://2883398872-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LLCCXzhzhO5fUT5UTHC-887967055%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-f5619a7ede9669c95ef184e86101f102be6cfbce%2Fimage%20(5).png?alt=media" alt="" data-size="original">

![Following these steps will copy the URL to your clipboard](https://2883398872-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LLCCXzhzhO5fUT5UTHC-887967055%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-d47ea364a07c22c75356fa7e031932cfab802d4e%2FcloneURL.png?alt=media)

## Step 3: Download to content to JupyterHub

Follow the steps in the [Downloading Content](/archive/jupyterhub/git-basics/git-clone.md) page in the previous section

## Step 4: Save and upload changes to your assigment materials

As you work on your assigment, it is a good practice to **commit and push** your changes regularly. Follow the steps in the [Saving and Uploading](/archive/jupyterhub/git-basics/saving-and-uploading-git-commit-push.md) page in the previous section

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

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

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.ccv.brown.edu/archive/jupyterhub/github-classroom-student-guide/getting-assignments.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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.
