NovaSeq 6000Dx Analysis Application Output Folder Structure

The following files and folders are created during analysis by NovaSeq 6000Dx Analysis Application:

  • analysisResults.json

  • CopyComplete.txt

  • edgeos.nextflow.config

  • inputs/

    • sampleMapping.json

    • SampleSheet.csv

    • SampleSheet.json

  • Manifest.tsv

  • params.json

  • Results/

  • workflowLogs/

    • nf-main-***.log

When the analysis run completes, the analysis application generates an analysis output in a specified location. To view analysis output, follow the steps below:

  1. On the “Completed” runs tab, select the run

  2. Review the run details page, and this will give the information to access the output folder

  3. External Location: is the input for the run

  4. Analysis Output Folder: is where the output is stored. To navigate to this page, follow the “server location” and the gds analysis output folder

  5. Navigate to the directory that contains the analysis output folder

  6. Open the folder, and then select the files that you want to view
