What are Cases and how are they used in a DEEDS dataset?

Files: How to upload and manage files for your dataset

DataTables: How to add and edit metadata for data table columns to describe your data and customize the viewing of your data.



DataTables: How to clone data tables for a collection of data tables that are exact copies of each other (columns, metadata), e.g., for repeated measures over time.

Tools: How to define a new tool to launch and execute from your dataset

Tool Workflows: How to explore and manage your computing workflows.
