Channels are locations where Navigator and conda look for packages.
You can search and browse packages and channels on Anaconda Cloud (https://anaconda.org).

i Note

Navigator and conda only search for packages in active channels. You can temporarily disable a
channel by making it inactive.

EXAMPLE: Let’s say you want to look for packages on the “Milagro” channel of Anaconda Cloud. All
three of these channel variations will look for packages in the same place on Cloud:

By URL–https://anaconda.org/milagro.
By conda URL–https://conda.anaconda.org/milagro.
By name–milagro.
On the Environment tab, click the Channels button to open the Channels Manager.

Adding a channel
1. Click the Add button.
