Uploading data involves the following actions, to be completed in order:

1. Ensure your account is certified

If your account is certified, there will be an icon indicating so on your profile page. If it is not yet certified, see Step 1 in How to Share Data (an Overview) for instructions.

2. Locate your Synapse project

In order to upload data, you need to have a designated Synapse project, which will be provided to you once you register your project with the NF-OSI coordinators. If you haven’t registered your project yet, see How to Share Data (an Overview) for more information and instructions on how to do this.

  • Log into Synapse.org

You can find more information on Synapse projects, files, and folders on the Synapse docs site.

For small folders/files, the website upload is generally easiest. For larger uploads (large files or many files), we recommend using the programmatic clients.
