# Storyboard: Edit Metadata and sample data of published phenotypes

It's important to edit metadata to adhere to a certain standard
format.  In addition to that, researchers constantly want to modify
data from a given experiment without the constant nudging of the
database administrator. For published phenotypes, currently gn2
supports editing metadata and sample-data, given that the user has the
right access privileges.

Before going any further, make sure you are signed in.

# Go to the traits and analysis page of your phenotype

In this page, if you have the right access privileges, you will see
the Edit button.

[![Search page](./traits-page-edit-button.png "Traits Page")](https://genenetwork.org/show_trait?trait_id=10007&dataset=BXDPublish)

To go to the edits page, click that "Edit" button

# Edit the metadata

On the metadata page, you will presented with a form with which you
can use to edit the metadata.  Updating any of the field will update
the data.

![Metadata Upload Form](./metadata-upload-form.png "Metadata Upload Form")

To view the updated history, click the "Update History" text.  You
will see your recent history:

![Updated History](./updated-history.png "Updated History")

# Editing sample data

To download sample data, first download it, by clicking the "Sample
Data(CSV Download)" link:

![Download sample data link](./download-sample-data-link.png "Download sample data link")

Edit this file in excel and make sure to save it in csv format.
Thereafter, you will be presented with a flash message that indicates
a successful upload:

![Flash Message](./flash-message.png "Flash Message")


## View your diffs

Go to the [diffs page](https://genenetwork.org/datasets/diffs "diffs
page") where you will see your previous uploaded data:

![Diffs Page](./diffs-page.png "Diffs Page")

If you the right curator access for a resource, you will see a
"reject" and "approve" button:

![Approve/ Reject button](./approve-reject-button.png "Approve/ Reject button")

Clicking one of the diffs will display the diff:

![JSON Diff view](./json-diff.png "JSON Diff view")

## Approve and Reject the changes

If you have curator privileges over the resource, click the approve or
reject button depending on how satisfactory the changes are.

## Check the traits page

Finally, the data has been updated, and you can always go back to the
traits page to view the data.
