I'm following Beginner's crash course, Part 2 Relevance of a search. The said json file from [News Category Dataset | Kaggle](https://www.kaggle.com/rmisra/news-category-dataset) is not uploading and getting Invalid file format error. I tried Dev tools - Network for any errors but didn't get any. The video shows around 20 MB but now it is 80+ MB, and throws parse error when opened in Firefox. Can I have the same file used in video. ---

I suspect you need to post in kaggle's forums to get the file. Thanks, Bhavya ---
