Unsupported Artifact Types

An artifact is defined as something that is produced by a process or protocol step. It is the output of a process/protocol step run in Clarity LIMS. For example, analytes and result files are all artifacts.

Currently, the REST API does not support the following artifacts:

• Reagents—While reagents are produced by some processes in the Clarity LIMS client, they are not exposed as artifacts in the REST API. Reagents are an entity type of their own available through the list and single reagents resources.

• Subartifacts—When a process produces shared outputs, the system creates subartifacts to support the REST data model. While they exist as entities in the system, subartifacts are transparent and meaningless to a user and are therefore not supported.
