Is it possible to query container custom fields?

This content is archived.

OpenSpecimen allows you to add custom fields at the storage container level to capture additional information.

The reporting module is specimen-based, hence the custom fields for containers do not appear in the list of fields.

Workaround: If you wish to view the data for the custom fields you can export the containers.

  1. Select the containers from the list page->click Export->Containers
