You can swap multiple datasets that are saved in a different project by adding multiple paths to the dataset separated by a semicolon (;). For example, /project_name1/ds_path/ds_filename.csv:/project_name1/ds_path/new_ds_filename.csv;/project_name2/ds_path/ds_filename.csv:/project_name2/ds_path/new_ds_filename.csv
