EBI team has created a very handy aws-wrapper cli tool to upload data into the appropriate bucket called hca-util.

Using this we can:

  • create an hca-util upload area
  • upload files into an upload area
  • list existing files of an upload area
  • delete files from an upload area
  • download files from an upload area
  • sync files to a submission upload area

You should have a wrangler account for AWS, but if you don’t please ask a developer to create one for you.

In order to use hca-util as an admin please use the following guide.

Contributors are also able to upload data using hca-util via this guide.
