2. Install the model aggregator app on a: syftbox app install https://github.com/OpenMined/model_aggregator --config_path <path_to_config.json> where <path_to_config.json> points to a's config.json file
3. Copy the participants.json into a's api_data/model_aggregator/launch folder, e.g. .clients/[email protected]/datasites/[email protected]/api_data/model_aggregator/launch/participants.json.
