Hi there,  
I am trying to get the url to my dvc remote data from SageMaker Studio by running the below code. However, I get the below error and have not been able to solve it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

!pip install dvc  
from dvc.api import get\_url

url = get\_url(  
repo=“[https://github.com/.../machine\_learning](https://github.com/.../machine_learning)”,  
path=“experiments/…/data.pkl”  
)  
print(url)

CloneError: Failed to clone repo ‘[https://github.com/.../machine\_learning](https://github.com/.../machine_learning)’ to ‘/tmp/tmpo6kgus\_3dvc-clone’

Hi @MRebollo, could you please try cloning that git repo locally? DVC uses git underneath, so if that works, DVC should be able to clone the repo as well.
