> Log and visualize data without a W&B account

# Anonymous mode

Are you publishing code that you want anyone to be able to run easily? Use anonymous mode to let someone run your code, see a W\&B dashboard, and visualize results without needing to create a W\&B account first.

Allow results to be logged in anonymous mode with:

```python theme={null}
import wandb

wandb.init(anonymous="allow")
```

For example, the proceeding code snippet shows how to create and log an artifact with W\&B:

```python theme={null}
import wandb

run = wandb.init(anonymous="allow")

artifact = wandb.Artifact(name="art1", type="foo")
artifact.add_file(local_path="path/to/file")
run.log_artifact(artifact)

run.finish()
```
