      • Specify the UUID of the shared Globus endpoint. If necessary, copy the UUID from that endpoint, as described in Copying the Globus Shared Endpoint UUID.
      • Specify the endpoint (destination) path as it would appear in the Path field in the Globus File Manager. For example, /~/DestinationFolderName/ is the path to the DestinationFolderName folder on the root of the shared Globus endpoint. If you want DME to transfer the data to the root, specify a forward slash character (/) as the path. If the destination folder structure you specify does not already exist, DME creates it.
    • If you are downloading a single file, you can keep the existing file name or specify a new file name.
  6. Click Download. The system responds as follows:
    • The system transfers the data based on your selections:
      • If you selected a single data file, the system transfers the selected file to the specified folder in the targeted Globus endpoint.
      • If you selected multiple data files, the system transfers the selected files from each DME collection to a separate folder in the targeted Globus endpoint.
      • If you selected one or more collections, the system transfers the selected collection and all subcollections. 
    • Depending on your event subscriptions, the system might send you an email notification of the download status. For instructions on subscribing, refer to Subscribing to Download and Registration Notifications.
