At a Glance
This tutorial shows you how to save an input file or file set from your search results directly to a study in the HISE Collaboration Space. This process lets you associate selected files with relevant studies. If you have questions, contact Support.
When to Use This Process
Use this process to associate your Advanced Search results with a specific study in the HISE Collaboration Space. Saving files to a study can accomplish any of the following objectives:
- Use Advanced Search results to create or add to file sets attached to a study for collaborative analysis or reporting.
- Capture the exact provenance of input files used to define a cohort or data set so that downstream analyses are reproducible and traceable.
- Gather related input files into one study before attaching an IDE instance, building a visualization, or creating additional study artifacts.
- Promote ad hoc search results into study‑scoped assets as you move from exploratory work to structured research.
- Create or add to file sets for AI/ML training runs.
