Training a Domo AutoML model

To understand the utility of Domo AutoML, let's get a public dataset on the prices of used cars and use it to build a predictive model based on used car prices:

1. Download the Used Car Dataset from Kaggle: https://www.kaggle.com/austinreese/craigslist-carstrucks-data.
2. Use the Domo File Upload Connector to place the vehicles.csv data into a Domo dataset named Vehicles, as shown in the following screenshot. The file is large, so it may take several hours to load:

Figure 16.2 – Vehicles dataset post-import

3. After the file has been loaded in, click on MORE, then AutoML.
4. This will take us to a page that looks similar to the one shown in Figure 16.1. Click the GET STARTED button.
5. In the AutoML window, set the modeling parameters shown in the following screenshot. Set price for Column to predict and Automatic (Recommended) for Task type. Then, expand the Advanced tab and set AUTOML CANDIDATES TO RUN...
