Available data delivery formats
Upon approval of a data access request, the requesting user can initiate a transfer to their chosen workspace.
The format this data is transferred in is determined by the data owner, and is managed from the dataset administration tab.
FAIR supports four different data transfer formats:
| Transfer Type | Description | Where is the data hosted | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | Clear data is transferred from FAIR to a workspace | Internally or externally | |
| Pseudonymised | Data is pseudonymised as part of transfer from FAIR to a workspace | Internally or externally | This option is only available in hubs where the PMN service is enabled |
| Token | An auth token is issued by a Federated Node and transferred from FAIR to a workspace | Externally | This option is only available when the data source is set to Federated Node |
| Manual | No automated transfer to a workspace, manual intervention is required to push data to workspace upon DAR approval | NA | Cohort Builder is not available on manual transfer datasets |
