 Changing the sharing status of a project only affects sequencing data yet to be produced. It does not share data files already uploaded to the FTP site for past runs, nor does choosing to now not share remove files already on the FTP site. The sharing state is examined during data production and is not tied to the sharing state at the time of submission. Thus if a submission is made to a project without sharing, but between submission and sequencing the sharing option of the project is turned on, the submission predating the change will also be published to both FTP accounts. Likewise the reverse: if a submission is made with sharing but between submission and sequencing the sharing option is turned off, the earlier submission will only be uploaded to the FTP account of the submitter's group. Therefore it is advised to choose which Clarity projects are shared and which are not at the outset, and submit accordingly. Changing the sharing status of a project only affects sequencing data yet to be produced.

-Data retrieval is via **''ftp3.cruk.cam.ac.uk''** using the credentials provided. ftp3 is an encrypted FTP server, so remember to add the options to your FTP client required for transferring using the **FTPS** protocol (**not SFTP**, which is completely different). For //lftp//, [[https://blogs.reliablepenguin.com/2009/08/11/ftps-with-lftp|this page]] gives some information. Other FTP clients are available of course: please refer to their instructions for enabling FTPS.+Data retrieval is via **''ftp3.cruk.cam.ac.uk''** using the credentials provided. ''ftp3'' is an encrypted FTP server, so remember to add the options to your FTP client required for transferring using the **FTPS** protocol (**not SFTP**, which is completely different).
