# Competitions

Create a competition checklist:

- [ ] Create a space using https://huggingface.co/new-space
- [ ] Create a private dataset using https://huggingface.co/new-dataset
- [ ] Create a public dataset using https://huggingface.co/new-dataset
- [ ] Add the following secrets to the space:
  - `AUTOTRAIN_TOKEN`: the token of the user that will be used to create autotrain projects
  - `AUTOTRAIN_USERNAME`: the username of the user that will be used to create autotrain projects
  - `COMPETITION_ID`: Private dataset created previously, e.g.: `my_org/my_private_dataset`
