Open the fit.py file available within your project from the left navigation panel.
You can use the fit.py file to create a fitted model which creates a model.pkl file that you can use to deploy the actual model.
Run the fit.py file by clicking Run > Run all.
The model.pkl directory is created that you can see within your project on the left navigation pane.
Close the session by clicking Stop.
