RDMC Explorer

The RDMC Explorer gives you a detailed view of a single container. To open it, go to your User Dashboard and click on any container — you will be taken to its dedicated Explorer page.

Container Summary

At the top of the Explorer page, you will find a summary of your container’s key information:

  • Name – the title of your RDMC container

  • Status – the current state of the container (e.g. Create or Seal)

  • Created at – the date and time the container was created

  • Last modified – when the container was last updated

  • ePIC PID – the persistent identifier assigned to the container upon sealing

  • Contributors – names and details of all contributors

  • License – the license(s) applied to the container

  • Keywords – keywords associated with the container

  • Subject – the research subject area

  • Description – a short description of the container

Artifacts & Manifest

Below the summary, you can browse the artifacts and the manifest file of your container.

  • All files and folders inside the container are listed and can be explored directly in the browser.

  • Text-based files such as .txt, .json, .xml, and .csv can be viewed directly on the page.

  • Other file types such as .zip, .pdf, and .docx cannot be previewed — you will need to download them to view their contents.

Note

The Explorer is a read-only view. User cannot edit anything here.
