Managing channels from Anaconda.org

Channels are locations where Navigator and conda look for packages. You can search for and browse packages and channels on Anaconda.org.

For example, let’s say you want to look for packages on the “Milagro” channel of Anaconda.org. All three of these channel variations will look for packages in the same place on anaconda.org:

• By name – milagro

• By URL – https://anaconda.org/milagro

• By conda URL – https://conda.anaconda.org/milagro

Adding a channel
