NAN Data Browsers

Data Browser Navigation Bar

Initially NAN referred to the Data Browser as the tool to organize, search, and filter NMR datasets, but has evolved to include the ability do the same for Samples, Collections (both dataset and sample), and a display for users to view their lab permissions, My Permissions. Thus, the Data Browser, now refers to a series of dashboards:

• Datasets
• Samples
• Collections
• My Permissions

Accessing Dashboards

Users can switch between dashboards using the high-level navigation bar on the left side of the screen shown in the image on this page.

• The navigation bar is collapsible to maximize screen space and can be collapsed / expanded by clicking the icon in the upper left hand corner

Dashboard Descriptions

Brief description of dashboards with more detailed information on their individual wiki pages

Datasets

• Displays all datasets that the user has permission to view.
• Includes public and published datasets, as well as any private datasets the user has access to.

Samples

• Shows all samples for which the user has view permissions.

Collections

• Displays both dataset and sample collections that the user is allowed to access.

My Permissions

• Shows the lab groups and projects the user is affiliated with.
• Lists the specific permissions the user has in each context.

Table Customization

The Datasets, Samples, and Collections dashboards all display data in tabular format. Each has one a column that is fixed as the first column, but users have the ability to customize the dashboards with the preferences saved in the NAN database allowing it to persist across sessions, browsers, and computers.

• Users can customize:
  • Which columns are shown.
  • The order of columns.
