Creating metadata tables
CLC Metadata tables can be created in several ways:
- Import metadata from an Excel, CSV or TSV format file using the Import Metadata (
) tool, described in Importing metadata.
- As an output from workflows (Workflow Result Metadata), described in Launching workflows individually and in batches.
- By selecting rows of an existing CLC Metadata Table, right-clicking over the selected rows and choosing the option Create New Metadata Table... (
). Data associated with those rows will also be associated to the rows of the new CLC Metadata Table.
Figure 11.3: Select rows in a CLC Metadata table, right-click and choose "Create New Metadata Table..." to create an element with just those rows.
A template workflow for importing sequence data with associated metadata can be found in the Preparing Raw Data folder in the Tempalte Workflow section of the Toolbox. Import with Metadata.
