Project Guide

This guide will walk you through creating a project using the Via Foundry platform, and how to insert pipelines and files into it.

Creating Projects and Adding Pipelines

Projects are platforms to categorize all of your runs and files. To run a pipeline, you must add it into your project. There are two ways to create a new project and add pipelines to it:

  • A. First, click the "Projects" button in the top of the screen. From the dropdown menu, you can create a new project by clicking Add a New Project. After saving the name of the project, it will be added to your Projects table, which is accessible from the dropdown menu, as shown in the image below:

Note: You can always edit or remove your projects by clicking View All Projects button or clicking on the project name from the dropdown menu, navigating to the Settings tab, and clicking the Edit or Delete Project icons.

Now you are able to enter the project page by clicking the name of the project from the Projects dropdown menu. You will notice five tabs in the project page:

  • Dashboard: Your project's homepage. The dashboard contains the Description box, where you can write down information about the project; and the Analysis section, which will contain reports on the project and its runs.
  • Data Collections: The project files can be organized in this section. You can create collections on the run page and reorganize them here. To add data, simply click the "Add Collection" button.
  • Pipelines: To make the desired pipeline(s) available for your project, click on the "Add Pipeline" button. From the provided list, select the pipelines you want to include. Once selected, click the run button to navigate to the run page. If you wish to create a custom pipeline, click on the "Create Pipeline" button.
  • Runs: Table containing information about all the runs conducted in your current project (see image below). You can enter a specific run's page by clicking on the name of the run.
  • Settings: Information about your project: name, creator, and date/time created. From this tab, you can edit or delete a given project, as mentioned above. image

  • B. You can also create a project by clicking the Pipelines button on the top left of the page. Select the pipeline you want to run by clicking on it. At the top right of the pipeline page, you'll see a Run button; press this to initiate a run.
