Integrations & Exports
Clearline LIMS supports several export and integration patterns. Availability depends on tenant configuration.
Listing Exports
Most listing pages include an export action. The exported file reflects visible filters and selected columns where supported. Use this for operational spreadsheets, client lists, sample queues, or simple reporting.
Report Downloads
Published COAs can be downloaded from the sample, client, or reports area. Use report history for previously generated reports rather than rebuilding manually.
Instrument Files
Instrument workflows may include:
| Direction | Example |
|---|---|
| Export to instrument | Worksheet sample list sent to instrument software |
| Import from instrument | Result file loaded into worksheet/sample analyses |
| Manual spreadsheet import | CSV result table uploaded after bench entry |
Instrument imports are format-sensitive. If an instrument vendor updates export columns, contact support before using the new file in production.
APIs
SENAITE includes REST-style API capabilities used for integrations and automation. Clearline manages API access, credentials, and integration design. Do not share API credentials in email or screenshots.
Custom Clearline Exports
Some tenants include custom dashboard exports such as chain-of-custody workbooks, labels, benchsheets, or client-specific packages. These are documented in tenant-specific SOPs or dashboard notes.
Data Migration and Bulk Export
For full historical export, migration, or audit extraction, contact support. Large exports should be planned so filters, file formats, and chain-of-custody expectations are clear before data is produced.
