To upload files to Synapse, you need to be a certified user /wiki/spaces/DOCS/pages/2007072795. Because Synapse stores data from human subjects research, Sage Bionetworks requires that you demonstrate understanding of and compliance with privacy and security issues. You can complete your certification by taking a short certification quiz on Synapse.
Synapse can be used to store files of all types. Files must be stored within a project. All files that you upload to a project will appear in the Files tab of that project, which is the root directory. You can also create nested folders within a Synapse project to manage files and keep them organized.
