TableInfo: file.tsv

The file.tsv table will contain one row for each file in your program.

Field	Field Description	Required?	Field Value Type	Extra Info
id_namespace	A CFDE-cleared identifier representing the top-level data space containing this file [part 1 of 2-component composite primary key]	Required	string	id_namespace is a unique URI prefix pre-registered with CFDE and attached to your program (or a subset of your program) that identifies anything labeled with it as belonging to you. Please see the technical documentation for a full discussion of how this information is built and used.
local_id	An identifier representing this file, unique within this id_namespace [part 2 of 2-component composite primary key]	Required	string	The string formed by concatenating the id_namespace and local_id field values must be unique for each row in this table. Please see the technical documentation for a full discussion of how this information is to be used.
project_id_namespace	The id_namespace of the primary project within which this file was created [part 1 of 2-component composite foreign key]	Required	string
project_local_id	The local_id of the primary project within which this file was created [part 2 of 2-component composite foreign key]	Required	string
persistent_id	A persistent, resolvable (not necessarily retrievable) URI or compact ID permanently attached to this file	Optional	string	Meant to serve as a permanent address to which landing pages (which summarize metadata associated with this file) and other relevant annotations and functions can optionally be attached, including information enabling resolution to a network location through which the file can be accessed. Actual network locations must not be embedded directly within this identifier: one level of indirection is required in order to protect persistent_id values from changes in network location over time as files are moved around. Please see the technical documentation for a full discussion of how this information is to be used.
creation_time	An ISO 8601 -; RFC 3339 (subset)-compliant timestamp documenting this file's creation time: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS±NN:NN	Non-required: Any number of rows after the header can be filled	Value must be datetime	Example valid dates: 2021-01-08 2021-01-08T00:45:40Z 2021-01-08T00:45:40+00:00
size_in_bytes	The size of this file in bytes	Non-required: Any number of rows after the header can be filled	Value type is integer	do not include decimal places or decimal sign (.)
uncompressed_size_in_bytes	The total decompressed size in bytes of the contents of this file	Non-required: Any number of rows after the header can be filled	Value type is integer	do not include decimal places or decimal sign (.)
sha256	(preferred) SHA-256 checksum for this file [sha256, md5 cannot both be null]	Either this field OR md5 must be populated	Value should be HSA-256 hash or nothing; If you have both please use sha256	You may populate both md5 and sha256 for a given row, but only one is required
md5	(allowed) MD5 checksum for this file [sha256, md5 cannot both be null]	Either this field OR sha256 must be populated	Value should be MD5 hash or nothing; If you have both, please use sha256.	You may populate both md5 and sha256 for a given row but only one is required
filename	A filename with no prepended PATH information.	Non-required: Any number of rows after the header can be filled	Value type is string	Filenames do not need to be unique. Uniqueness is ensured by the local_id
file_format	An EDAM CV term ID identifying the digital format of this file (e.g. TSV or FASTQ)	Non-required: Any number of rows after the header can be filled	Value must be a valid EDAM ID	EDAM format lookup Example valid EDAM IDs: format:1930 format:3712 format:2310
data_type	An EDAM CV term ID identifying the type of information stored in this file (e.g. RNA sequence reads)	Non-required: Any number of rows after the header can be filled	Value must be a valid EDAM ID	EDAM data type lookup Example valid EDAM IDs: data:2044 data:2050 data:2082
assay_type	An OBI CV term ID describing the type of experiment that generated the results summarized by this file	Non-required: Any number of rows after the header can be filled	Value must be a valid OBI ID	OBI lookup service Example valid OBI IDs: OBI:0000366 OBI:0001177 OBI:0002763
mime_type	A MIME type describing this file	Non-required: Any number of rows after the header can be filled	Value must be a valid MIME type	Common MIME types Tutorial for bulk MIME type identification Example valid MIME types: image/jpeg text/html application/octet-stream
