In today's meeting we talked a lot about how we'd like to write brief documentation on how to upload data and publish it. Whether you watched the recording or not, you are welcome to join in the follow up discussion here. :heart:
After the meeting I started thinking about how the API Guide has a Getting Started with APIs page.
If you drop down to the Depositing Data section, you'll see that there is very little original content on the page itself. Instead we link to places in the API Guide where this or that task is described, such as uploading files.
I like to think this page adds some value and it was quite easy to write up. Again, it's mostly pointers to content elsewhere (that may be hard to find). So! We COULD do this for "how to upload and publish" (via UI, of course) but it's just a thought. :sweat_smile:
oops, realised I've not done my homework in helping with the how to upload and publish data guide. will try to find some time before the meeting tomorrow, if not we can pair-write it on the call! :sunglasses:
Sure, we could just start a google doc and capture some ideas.
sounds good! i've updated the meeting notes-- we can go through the examples from institutions we liked, and maybe discuss anything that's come up in the docs channel as well :smile:
Looks great!
