Releasing Profiles (Studies)

Hint

Profiles [1] (in COPO) are referred to as projects or studies (in ENA [2] ).

Note

The ability to make a profile public is only available after reads have been submitted.

Thus, the Release Study profile action, release-profile-action, is only displayed after reads have been submitted.

By default, all profiles [1] created in COPO are private. This means that the profile is only visible to the user who created it on COPO and as such, it cannot be accessed on public repositories such as ENA [2].

To make a profile public, please follow the steps below:

  1. Click the profile-actions-button button associated with the desired profile. A list of actions will be displayed in a popup menu.

    Then, click the release-profile-action profile action to make the profile public as shown below depending on the profile type.

    The profile i.e. project will be automatically be made public and can be viewed publicly in ENA.
