Source location for downloading data from JupyterLab workspace (rsync)

Hi, I am trying to download a bunch of files from my jupyterlab workspace at once. I understand that rsync can be used now to accomplish this. What exactly will be the “source” directory of the data if I rsync download from there to say, my personal machine? I tried using data-eu.tng-project.org:[username] but that didn’t work. Can I ask what the format of the source directory will be?
In particular, you can rsync "out" from the Lab, but you cannot rsync "in".
So in the Lab, you can type e.g. rsync files* remote.system.address.edu:~/

Thank you, but I feel like my question wasn't clear enough. I was asking for what the remote.system.address.edu will be for a given user?
For example, I tried "farhasan@data-eu.tng-project.org" and "data-eu.tng-project.org/farhasan" and many variations thereof with no avail. I even tried "farhasan:[IP Address]" using the public IP address of the workspace in my browser.
Sorry if this has been answered in previous posts, but I didn't see it. If this is information that I can gleam from my jupyterlab workspace or from this site, I would love to know how.
Thank you again

You cannot access your Lab workspace from outside.
However, from within your Lab, you can make a remote (outgoing) connection to a different server. I.e., the command above would be run inside the Lab, and the needed address is that of your other server.

We discussed this a bit in this thread.

Thank you so much, that makes a lot more sense!
