Collaboration is at the heart of molecular modeling, but sharing complex data across teams can be a tedious process that often results in access barriers or file format inconsistencies. SAMSON Connect solves this challenge with an easy-to-use document sharing feature that ensures seamless collaboration across research groups. Let’s explore how you can efficiently share and manage molecular modeling documents via SAMSON Connect.
Why Seamless Sharing Matters
In molecular modeling projects, sharing design files, simulation results, or structural data with precision becomes critical. Traditional sharing methods may lack flexibility or fail to control who has access to sensitive data. SAMSON Connect addresses these issues with clear options for document visibility while simplifying file access.
How to Share Documents in SAMSON
Sharing your documents on SAMSON Connect is straightforward. To share a document:
- Open SAMSON and click Home > Publish.
- In the dialog window that appears, provide:
- The document name.
- A brief description of its content.
- Your intended document visibility, from the options below:
- Public: Accessible to all users; editing requires permissions.
- Hidden: Accessible only via a shared link; editing requires permissions.
- Restricted: Requires granted access for viewing or editing.
- Click Publish document. SAMSON Connect will generate a shareable link for easy distribution.
Managing Shared Documents
Once shared, all your published documents—and those shared with you—are accessible via your SAMSON Connect account. You can review, edit visibility settings, or revoke access at any time. This keeps you in complete control of your research data.
The Next Steps
Beyond sharing, SAMSON Connect facilitates enhanced collaboration with tools to manage access rights and groups. Whether you’re working with a small research team or coordinating across institutions, this feature keeps everyone aligned.
