TableInfo: substance.tsv

Amanda Charbonneau edited this page Apr 1, 2022 · 5 revisions

This table must not be manually created. Users should skip this (and all other controlled vocabulary term tables) when preparing the rest of their datapackage's TSV files for submission. Once the other tables are built, users should then use the CFDE term-table builder script to automatically build this table (and the other term tables) from the information stored in the other already-completed table files.

The substance.tsv table will have as many rows as the number of unique PubChem substance terms appearing in the substance column of either biosample_substance.tsv or subject_substance.tsv (or both).
