Nathalie:
"should we have some templates available to help anyone get started? specific to different fields of research, i.e. Cell science, Brain Science, and Immunology to at least help with the description of the file and sample."

"maybe we can come up with a minimal list/requirement following REMBI- I can help with that)"

"So maybe we should think this through [only required being file path] and add a bit more required key-value pairs.

Hi, I was just looking to create a CSV file for BFF and I couldn't find any info on how to construct the CSV file,
except for

"Data can be loaded from a CSV, Parquet, or JSON file. The data source must include a column that contains the file path to the data."

But this doesn't say if the name of the column that contains the file path is important (I think it has to be File Path?), or how to add multiple values (e.g. Tags) for a particular column. I found that the answer to this is to simply use a comma-separated list (within a single CSV cell) but this wasn't easy to find.

Thanks!

Apologies, I missed that the "Choose a Data Source" app starter page does have more info that "File Path" column is required etc.
