*Check out a walk-through on how to use the Transform script inside Notebook.*
{% endhint %}
You can write or upload a script containing transform function to a Notebook and save a model based on it. You can also register the model as an API service. This entire process gets completed in the below given steps:
1. [**Saving and loading a Model with Transform script**](#saving-and-loading-a-model-with-transform-script)
2. [**Registering a Transform Model**](#registering-a-transform-model)
3. [**Publishing a Transform Model as API**](#publish-a-transform-model-as-api)
### Saving and loading a Model with Transform script
* Navigate to a Notebook.
* Add a Code cell (by default one cell gets added in a new Notebook).
* Write or provide a transform script to the cell.
* Run the cell.
* Add a new Code cell.
* Click the ***Save Model*** option to generate the code to save the desired model.
* Specify the model name and model type in the auto-generated script.
* Run the cell.

* The registered model gets listed under the Meta Information tab of the DS Lab model runner component.
### Publishing a Transform Model as API
The Publish Model as API functionality gets completed in three steps:
1. [**Register a Transform Model as API**](#register-a-transform-model-as-api)
2. [**Register an API Client**](#register-an-api-client)
3. [**Pass Model Values in Postman**](#pass-model-values-in-postman)
#### Register a Transform Model as API
* Navigate to the ***Model*** tab.
* Select a saved model from the model list.
* Click the ***Register as API*** option.
* You will get directed to the ***Update Model*** page.
* Provide the ***Max Instance*** option.
