Defining the workflow #16

Probably the right starting point

  1. Go onto the GUI and make one entry for your files
    • this should mean that users enter all the contributors, institutes, references etc. they need
    • the tool should point people to the GUI before they do anything else and explain what steps they need to do
  2. Download the json for your file that you've entered
  3. Follow a guide (to be written) which explains how to modify your json so it can be used as a template to generate jsons for all of your other data files which you wish to cite
  4. Run the tool over the files you wish to generate jsons for
  5. Upload the jsons to the data citation server via the API
