Thanks @jwdebelius and @thermokarst.

Both of these methods work well for viewing the visualization - and that jupyter notebook functionality is awesome! I didn't know you could do that.

I work with collaborators who are located in areas without good access to the internet. I like sharing the QIIME 2 .qzv and .qza formats with [view.qiime2.org](http://view.qiime2.org) because it contains all the bioinformatics results along with the "Provenance" - what tools and parameters were used - very convenient. Is there a way to view the "Provenance" tab? I noticed it doesn't show up with either method. I found this post [viewing provenance from command line to show details available from view.qiime2.org](https://forum.qiime2.org/t/viewing-provenance-from-command-line-to-show-details-available-from-view-qiime2-org/16473) but I wasn't sure how to parse the extracted output, and I was hoping I could view it as it appears on [view.qiime2.org](http://view.qiime2.org).

If not, I kindly request this as a feature 🙂 .
