Link between Sample and Measurement metadata

[oquendoM]

What are you missing?

Link between the sample metadata and measurement metadata.

Why do you need a solution?

The user may want to get the measurement ID only for a subset of samples. If the filtering is depending on a biological parameter (analyte, treatment...) it is not possible. It is also difficult to visualize in the sample tab which samples already have data.

Ideas

I would go 2 ways:

1. Add column "raw data available: yes/no" in the sample metadata
2. Add the sample information in the measurement downloaded metadata after the measurement part.

Hi @oquendoM ,

thank you for your feedback!

I am unsure, what the user's goal is here. Can you elaborate? Why is only a subset of the measurement IDs relevant, based on what information?

Thanks,
Sven

Hi,

Let's say a user submit RNA and DNA samples but only want to download the RNA samples. Or they have 4 conditions, but only want to download from 3 conditions. The reason to do that will vary from user to user. If I try to get the URL list, I cannot filter for any sample characteristic.

Best, Morgana

Hi @oquendoM ,

If I try to get the URL list, I cannot filter for any sample characteristic.

I think that coins it, right? Enable users to filter measurements based on sample properties?

Last question (hopefully :D):

Is it only relevant for the download of data, or to have an overview in general? I am trying to understand, for what reason(s) the measurement ID is of interest.

[oquendoM]

The measurement ID is indeed only interesting to the download portion in my opinion.

[sven1103]

ok, and for the raw data availability, i would like to create an own issue, since it is independent from the download selection

[sven1103]

So talking to @oquendoM, we confirmed that it is about an quick overview AND selection of datasets of interest based on their a) availability, b) sequencing run (future feature) and some c) sample properties.

@Steffengreiner or @Shraddha0903, we need to look into feasibility of this request and what the Vaadin framework is providing us.

@oquendoM also underlined, that the current Grid support for multi-select of items in a Grid is not very user-friendly. Based on a filtered request, can we have an easy select all, that applies to the filtered items?
