# Importing the tutorial data set The tutorial data set includes 9 samples equally divided into 3 treatment groups. Sequencing was performed by an Illumina HiSeq (paired-end reads), but the workflow can be easily adapted for data generated by other sequencers. Each sample has 2 fastq files for a total of 18 fastq files. You can obtain the tutorial data set through Partek Flow. * Click your **avatar** * Click **Settings** in the drop-down menu (Figure 1)

*Figure 1. Location of the Settings link on the main page of Partek Flow*

At the top of the System information page, there is a section labeled Tutorial data (Figure 2).

*Figure 2. Click RNA-Seq 5-AZA to download the sample data set*

* Click **RNA-Seq 5-AZA** to download the bulk RNA-Seq tutorial data set A new project will be created and you will be directed to the Analyses Tab. The data will be downloaded automatically (Figure 3) and imported into your project. Because this is a tutorial project, there is no need to click on Add data as it will be done automatically.

*Figure 3. A new project will be automatically created and populated with the tutorial data set*

At first the project is empty, but the file download will start automatically in the background. You can wait a few minutes then refresh your browser or you can monitor the download progress using the Queue. * Click **Queue** * Click **View Queued Tasks** in the drop-down menu The Queued tasks page will open (Figure 4).

* Click **Projects** * Click **RNA-Seq 5-AZA** in the drop-down menu The Analyses tab will open (Figure 5). If the download has completed, you will see a blue circle titled mRNA. The project name can be changed at any time by clicking the *Project settings* tab.

Once the download completes, the sample table will appear in the Metadata tab. * Click the **Metadata** tab. The Metadata tab includes the sample table with the names of each imported sample (Figure 6).

In the next section of the tutorial, we will add a sample attribute that indicates the treatment group of each sample. ## Additional Assistance If you need additional assistance, please visit [our support page](http://www.partek.com/support) to submit a help ticket or find phone numbers for regional support. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
