In most cases, your dataset-specific folders should already be set up based on the datasets listed in your data sharing plan. However, here are the general instructions for your creating data folders:
Once you’re in your project, click on Files, and then click the Data or Raw Data folder.
If the data are associated with a particular project milestone (e.g. 6 months, 12 months, etc), navigate Navigate to, or create a folder (Folder Tools > Create Folder) for that milestone (e.g. “6 month deliverables”).Within this new or existing folder, create a new folder for the experiment or data type you plan to upload (e.g. “RNA Seq Experiment 1”).
You can find more information on Synapse projects, files, and folders on the Synapse docs site.
Important: If you manually create your folder, the folder will not show up in the Data Curator App unless there it has the annotation contentType = dataset. You can manually add this annotation by clicking the annotation folder icon (shown below by the red arrow) and adding the Key contentType to equal dataset. Folders created by Sage will have this annotation automatically.

4. Upload your data
Now that you have an appropriate folder to house your data, you’re ready to upload. You can do this using the Synapse.org UI or by using one of our programmatic clients—Python, R, or command-line. For small folders/files, the website upload is generally easiest. For larger uploads (large files or many files), we recommend using the programmatic clients.
