The tool enables users to do many things with the lists in addition to creating them. They can view their list information, add more items to it, update, delete, split, merge, and share it with others. The action icons differ depending on the ownership of the lists. For example, users cannot edit the lists shared with them by others.
View list items
To view the list and its items, click View List.
Update a list's information
Click Manage beside the list. The Basic Info tab opens with the general information about the list. From here, users may edit their lists as necessary.
Refer back to the list creation user guide for further instructions.
Split list
Click More Action beside the list. Then, select Split List. A modal opens with the settings on splitting the list.
2. Specify the number of child lists (the number of lists to split) and the arrangement of the split items (ascending or descending).
3. Finally, click Split. The split lists will appear in the data browser.
In the Description column, users can see which list derives from which. By default, the new list names itself after the original and appears at the top of the browser.
Merge lists
The merge feature lets users create a new list by combining selected lists of the same type. Note that only lists of the same type (e.g., two or more germplasm lists) can be merged.
1. Tick the checkboxes beside two or more lists to be merged. Then, click Merge Lists from the toolbar.
On the modal, select between the two options to create the list: Create a new list or Use existing list. You may refer to the dropdown below for the merge list options.
The Abbrev and Display Name will be automatically populated based on the name users provide for their list, but they may still edit them.

Once done with the options, click Merge. The data browser reopens with the merged list.
If users opted to create a new list, the newly created list with the merged items will be on top of the List Manager browser.
Otherwise, the existing list selected to be the new list will retain its position in the browser, with its count reflecting the total number of merged items.
Add items to list
Click More Action beside the list. Then, select Add items to list. The Add items tab reopens where users can manually add items to the list.
Refer back to the list creation user guide for further instructions.
Delete a list
Click More Action beside the list. Then, select Delete list. The modal opens where users need to confirm the action.
2. To confirm the action, click Delete. Once deleted, the list will never be retrieved.
Share a list
This feature allows users to share their lists with other programs and users. They can allow the people or program to view it only or edit it.
Click More Action beside the list. Then, select Share list. The modal opens where users can modify the permissions.
Select the program(s) and/or the user(s) users wish to share their list with.
Click Add. The programs and/or users with permissions will be displayed at the right pane.
4. To change their permission, select the programs and/or users, then update the permission and click Apply to selected. Refer to the panel below for the permission options.
Once done, click Close to go back to the data browser.
