Finding Data Submission IDs

Accepted and submitted data are assigned unique identifiers known as accessions.

Submitted data are publicly visible after publication or release (see Publishing Data for more information). They can be viewed using the accessions on public repositories (see Where Your Submitted Data Goes for more information).

The type of accession assigned depends on the type of submission made. The following are different kinds of accessions that can be assigned after successful submissions:

  • Assembly

  • Biosample

  • Experiment

  • Run

  • Sequence annotation

  • Study

  • SRA

  • Submission

Tip

For sample submissions within a Tree of Life profile, the Approval Date column in the sample data table indicates when the submission was approved and which project the approving sample manager belongs to.

The Status column indicates the current status of the submission. Once the submission are approved and has been successful, the status will be marked as accepted.

Accessions can be explored through the following ways:

Note

Please note that the accept-reject-samples-navigation-button button will only appear on a page if you are granted permission to be a sample manager.


Within the data table

After submissions have been successfully made, the accessions can be found within the data table on the respective submission page. For example:
