If you want to register multiple files and provide metadata for each object (data file and each or collection) in that upload, prepare that metadata in a Microsoft Excel XLSX file. 

1. Download the sample metadata file from GitHub at (TBD). 
2. Revise the file to reflect the objects (files and folders) you intend to specify for upload via Globus:
   • The first column should reflect the location of each object. 
   • The first column should reflect the collection type. The default collection type is Folder. 
   • The remaining columns should reflect the user-defined attributes for each object. 
   • Each row should reflect one of your objects. 
   • The system requires a row for each object with mandatory metadata. 
   • If the default values are acceptable for all mandatory metadata of an object, you can omit that row.

   2. Save that CSV file as an XLSX file.
