Browse your data

Once storage is connected, the object browser lets you move through the folders and files inside a connection just like a file manager.

The object browser

Views

The browser offers three ways to look at your data:

  • List view — a compact table of files and folders.
  • Grid view — thumbnail-style cards (the default).
  • Tree view — a nested folder tree.

Switch between them with the View mode control at the top of the browser.

Finding what you need

  • Filters — narrow the current folder with the Show filters button.
  • Search — search across multiple buckets by file name or path prefix from the Search screen.
  • Favorites — pin folders or items you use often; they appear in the Favorites area of the home screen for quick re-access.
  • Recent — Cytario tracks items you have viewed, listed in the Recent area.

Opening an image

An image file (for example an OME-TIFF whole-slide scan) opens in the image viewer — continue to View a slide.
