Parameters in GUI

ParameterDescriptionDefault valueParameter in Workflow FileType
Input filesSemicolon-separated list of datasets to the input files.url-instring
ModeIf the file contains more than one sequence, “split” mode sends them as is to output, while “merge” appends all the sequences and outputs the merged sequence.Splitmodenumeric
Available values are:
0 - for split mode
1 - for merge mode
Merging gapIn the “merge” mode, inserts the specified number of gaps between the original sequences. This is helpful, for example, to avoid finding false positives at the merge boundaries.10merge-gapnumeric
Sequence count limitSplit mode only. Read only the first N sequences from each file. Set 0 value for reading all sequences.0sequence-count-limitnumeric
Accession filterOnly reports a sequence with the specified accession (ID).accept-accessionstring
