Start with notebooks/how-to-use-azureml/track-and-monitor-experiments/using-mlflow/train-projects-remote/train-projects-remote.ipynb and the failing mlflow.projects.run call in cell 15. Trace the Azure ML backend handling of the Project object and its conda environment lookup. Done means the remote experiment runs without the conda_env_path AttributeError.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

When executing the train-projects-remote notebook in VS Code it throws and error when you try to run the experiment.
AttributeError: 'Project' object has no attribute 'conda_env_path'
