Properties

Name Type Description
aliases array Aliases to add to the Oligo
authorIds array IDs of users to set as the Oligo's authors.
bases string Base pairs of the oligo.
customFields object Custom fields to add to the Oligo. Every field should have its name as a key, mapping to an object with information about the value of the field.
fields object Fields to set on the Oligo. Must correspond with the schema's field definitions. Every field should have its name as a key, mapping to an object with information about the value of the field.
folderId string ID of the folder containing the Oligo.
name string Name of the Oligo.
schemaId string ID of the oligo's schema.
annotations array Annotations on the Oligo.
helm string Representation of the oligo in HELM syntax, including any chemical modifications
customNotation string Representation of the sequence or oligo in the custom notation specified by customNotationId
customNotationId string ID of the notation used to interpret the string provided in the customNotation field
