Add Analysis Workflows to Existing Biosamples

You can use the biosample workflow file to add new analysis workflow instructions to existing biosamples.

1.

Create a CSV file as follows. See Biosample Workflow File Format for more information about the template file and field requirements.

1. Download or open a biosample workflow template.
2. For each biosample, enter the following required information.
• Biosample Name—The unique identifier for the source DNA.
• Default Project—The default project for storing analysis data.
• Analysis Workflow—The name of the analysis workflow.

NOTE

All template columns must be present in the biosample workflow file, but the Default Project cannot be changed using a biosample workflow. If the biosample does not exist in the specified project, BaseSpace Sequence Hub creates a new biosample in the project. For information about changing the default project for a biosample, see Change Default Project.

3. [Optional] Enter additional analysis workflow parameters.
4. Save the file.

2.

From the biosamples master list, select the File drop-down arrow, point to Upload, and then select Biosample Workflow.

3.

In the Upload a Biosample Workflow dialog, add your biosample workflow file.

BaseSpace Sequence Hub validates the file and identifies any errors.

•

If there are errors in the file, correct the file and upload it again.

•

If there are no errors, review the notifications and select Continue.
