  2. Navigating the interface: Get acquainted with the different sections of the interface by looking through this tutorial.
  3. Accessing documentation: The platform allows users to search and download public BioCompute Objects(BCOs) without signing in. However, logging in is necessary to create and modify BCOs. Resources can be found throughout the WikiPage to help you navigate the platform effectively.

How to create a BCO

  1. Starting a New BCO
  2. Providing Metadata
  3. Defining workflows and Analysis
  4. Including Data Sources
  5. Review and Finalization
  6. Saving and Sharing

Where do I go to search for an existing BCO

  1. BioCompute Database Search
    1. Advanced Search
  2. Prefix Registrty
  3. Downloading and Viewing BCOs
