Upload Files

Upload Files

De-ID accepts files in .txt format. Word files (.docx) and Excel files (.xlsx) will be accepted in future versions of De-ID. 

  1. You can use the Dashboard in De-ID to upload your file(s) that require de-identification. In the Upload Files panel, you have the option to select files from your computer by clicking “Select Files,” or you can drag and drop files into the light grey bar to upload them. 

 

2. Once you see your files appear in the Upload Files panel, click “Upload” to finish. 

 

 

3. After the upload is complete, you will see the file activity appear in the Recent Activity panel of the Dashboard with a timestamp of when the task was completed. 

Use the Documents Manager in the left side navigation menu to access all the files that you have uploaded to De-ID. You can also upload additional files from the Documents Manager by clicking “Upload Another File.”

 

At this point, your files are saved in the De-ID app but have not yet been de-identified.  The next step in the process will be to place an order to de-identify your data.
