The DCC has derived standards for how content is annotated in Synapse and this page describes the management of the keys, definitions, and references used to annotate files. See Synapse Annotations for general information, and search for community-approved terms in the Table of Annotations.

Schemas

The synapseAnnotations Github repo includes schemas for individual terms. The terms are organized by modules in the terms folder. There are subfolders for each module, and the term names include the module. The mechanisms that manage and implement these annotations are described in the README.

Each term is stored in a JSON mini-schema, such as the following:

{   $schema": "<http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",>
    "$id": "<https://repo-prod.prod.sagebase.org/repo/v1/schema/type/registered/sage.annotations-experimentalData.specimenID-0.0.1",>
    "description": "Identifying string linked to a particular sample or specimen",
    "type": "string"
}
