Workflow file for EMPIAR Upload

Hi all,

Is there a way to generate a workflow file similar to Scipion (workflow.json) that can be uploaded to EMPIAR along with the RAW files so anyone can reproduce the results in CryoSPARC?

Thank you

I want to bump this thread now that workflows are released with 4.4. Is the JSON file from exporting a cryosparc workflow compatible with EMPIAR’s workflow visualization?

Hi @prash & @sbliven ,

CryoSPARC workflows can be exported as .json files and are able to be imported into any instance. More information on this feature can be found in the guide: Workflows - CryoSPARC Guide.

In regards to the workflow visualization feature in EMPIAR, we have noted this feature for investigation and will look into the possibility of supporting it in the future.

Everything is JSON nowdays. :wink: The trick is using a standard data model that can interoperate with other software. Is the data model documented anywhere?

EMPIAR’s data model is also not well documented (I would have expected it here). I suspect that they only support Scipion workflow files.

Thanks @sbliven - at the moment we don’t have the schema documented but we’ll definitely consider publishing it in the near future. Do you happen to know of an EMPIAR entry that includes a Scipion workflow?

The Scipion3 paper cites three: EMPIAR-10891, EMPIAR-10516, and EMPIAR-10514. The EMPIAR website seems to be down though so I can’t verify.
