I am using Google Colab with my friend for a group project. I uploaded a csv file and had pandas read it as a dataframe:

from google.colab import files
uploaded = files.upload()
import io
df = pd.read_csv(io.StringIO(uploaded['cumulative.csv'].decode('utf-8')))

However, when I shared the notebook with my friend, he could not use the uploaded df. I was wondering if there was anyway to fix this? Or does Google colab simply not have the sharing files feature?

Thank you!

The sharing feature is on the code (notebook) only. But you and your friend each run the code in a separate instance machine. So, if you want to share, it's best to use reading from Google Drive that each of you can do oneself.
