## Access SPSS

1. **Go to <https://myapps.microsoft.com>**
2. Look for SPSS AppStream
   - SPSS AppStream -- 2-3 minute wait for start, available at all times.

4. Once started, your session should look like this:  

   ![image-1662982109538.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982109538.png)

## Save Your Work

**Be sure to save any work  
in one of the storage options,  
Home Folder or Google Drive.**

### Storage - Home Folder

When saving and opening files, you can use the special "**Home Folder**".  This area persists across all AppStream sessions.

![image-1662982476359.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982476359.png)

If you need to upload to the Home Folder from your own computer:

![image-1662982590270.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982590270.png)

### Storage - Google Drive

You can also link your AppStream sessions to your URI Google Drive.

- Perform the one-time linking -- after clicking Add Storage, select Google Drive, and then login with your URI Google credentials.  
  ![image-1662982773712.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982773712.png)
- Once linked, the Google Drive option will appear for opening and saving files.  Future AppStream sessions will not need to re-link to Google Drive.  

  ![image-1662982919492.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982919492.png)
- Getting files in and out of Google Drive continues to be like how you would normally use Google Drive independently of SPSS AppStream -- browse to drive.google.com and use your URI credentials.

### Downloading Files to Your Computer

***Once you have saved your files*** to either the ***Home Folder*** or ***Google Drive***, you can download the files to your own computer. This is sometimes needed, for example, when your instructor needs you to submit your files for handing in an assignment.

## Ending Your Session

There are no special directions for ending your SPSS AppStream session.  You can just close your browser window / tab.

# R AppStream - EVS 514 - Fall 2022

**These directions are for the use of R Studio via a web browser for EVS 514 Fall 2022.  
(instead of installing it on your own computer, or using a computer lab)**

## Get Help

- For R Studio questions/help about the class, contact your instructor, Jessica Morgan <jessicamorgan@uri.edu>.
- For technical issues, contact Chi Shen <cshen@uri.edu>.

## Access R AppStream

1. **Go to <https://myapps.microsoft.com>**
2. Click "R AppStream for EVS514"  

   ![image-1667034709910.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-10/scaled-1680-/Z369I1KoHxr79xvF-image-1667034709910.png)
3. Click the RStudio icon -- wait about 1-2 minutes for the session to start:

   ![image-1663099730988.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/or1glsVkC5RbWSgW-image-1663099730988.png)
4. Once RStudio has loaded, you should see this:  

   [![image-1667034904863.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-10/scaled-1680-/J3VsJCzvGLMv7sGM-image-1667034904863.png)](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-10/J3VsJCzvGLMv7sGM-image-1667034904863.png)

## Using the Home Folder

- The Home Folder is the storage that persists across your AppStream sessions. Any work or files saved there will persist across all AppStream sessions.
- By default, the "Working Folder" of this RStudio AppStream will start in the Home Folder.  To avoid confusion, it's usually a good idea to make the "Files" pane also show the Home Folder.[![image-1667035171782.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-10/scaled-1680-/kN7PgJY5ovvgPOuF-image-1667035171782.png)](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-10/kN7PgJY5ovvgPOuF-image-1667035171782.png)

## Copy and Paste

**From your computer to the AppStream session:**

1. Ctrl-C (or equivalent) on your machine
2. Click the special paste function in the session toolbar (below picture)
3. In the AppStream session, Ctrl-V to paste into R Studio.

   ![image-1662982109538.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982109538.png)

## Save Your Work

**Be sure any work that you want saved in one of the two storage options described below!   
(Home Folder or Google Drive)**

### Storage - Home Folder

When saving and opening files, you can use the special "**Home Folder**".  This area persists across all AppStream sessions.

![image-1662982476359.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982476359.png)

If you need to upload to the Home Folder from your own computer:

![image-1662982590270.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982590270.png)

![image-1662982628849.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982628849.png)

### Storage - Google Drive

You can also link your AppStream sessions to your URI Google Drive.

- Perform the one-time linking -- after clicking Add Storage, select Google Drive, and then login with your URI Google credentials.  
  ![image-1662982773712.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982773712.png)
- Once linked, the Google Drive option will appear for opening and saving files.  Future AppStream sessions will not need to re-link to Google Drive.  

  ![image-1662982919492.png](https://notes.its.uri.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2022-09/scaled-1680-/image-1662982919492.png)
- Getting files in and out of Google Drive continues to be like how you would normally use Google Drive independently of SPSS AppStream -- browse to drive.google.com and use your URI credentials.

## Session Time Limits

- If you accidentally close your browser/session, you can reconnect if you do so within 15 minutes.
- Idle sessions will be automatically ended after 30 minutes.
- The maximum single session length is 8 hours.  You will be warned to save your work 5 minutes before reaching this limit.  If you need to continue working, save your work, end the session, then start another session.

## Ending Your Session

There are no special directions for ending your SPSS AppStream session.  You can just close your browser window / tab.
