What should I do to link an example notebook to online documentation?

I created a [notebook](https://github.com/pymc-devs/pymc3/blob/master/docs/source/notebooks/data_container.ipynb) that shows the usage of a class in PyMC3 and I tried to link it to online documentation by changing this [file](https://github.com/pymc-devs/pymc3/blob/master/docs/source/notebooks/table_of_contents_tutorials.js). This didn’t work (the notebook doesn’t appear in the [Tutorials page](https://docs.pymc.io/nb_tutorials/index.html)).

Do I need to modify more files to make it work?

I realize that the notebooks are in `html` format in the online documentation, so maybe I need to compile the documentation first. Is this correct?

I closed this as it is duplicated with [How to compile the documentation for the API?](https://discourse.pymc.io/t/how-to-compile-the-documentation-for-the-api/2988)

To answer your question, submitting a PR to change that [file](https://github.com/pymc-devs/pymc3/blob/master/docs/source/notebooks/table_of_contents_tutorials.js) is correct. It is not appearing because the doc is only updated/push at each release now.
