Manage data storages

To directly import files from your storage, link storage to your organization in Emedgene.

Note: to have access to data storage management, you must have Manager and Multiple Storage user roles.

How to create a link between storage and organization:

1. Click on the user initials or profile picture at the rightmost corner of the Top navigation panel to open the Settings dropdown menu. Select Settings.

1. Select the Management tab. Under Storage is a list of currently linked storages. To add a new one press on Add Storage button.

1. Choose a Storage Type from:

   1. Azure Data Lake;

   2. Azure Blob;

   3. AWS S3;

   4. File Transport Protocol (FTP);

   5. Secure File Transport Protocol (SFTP);

   6. Illumina Basespace (BSSH);

   7. Illumina Connected Analytics (ICA).

1. Fill in the required credentials.

2. Click on Add storage:

1. Check the connection to confirm that the storage is successfully linked.

To do this, find the storage in the Storage List and check the cloud icon next to its name: 1. If it's green, the connection is set correctly; 2. If it's red and strikethrough, something went wrong. Hover over the icon to see details.

How to edit storage information:

In the Storage List press Manage on the right to the storage details.

How to remove a link to storage:

In the Storage List press Delete on the right to the storage details.
