What file formats do you accept?

SelfDecode accepts most standard raw DNA file formats, including .txt, .csv, .zip, and .gz files. For Dante Labs, Nebula Genomics, and other whole genome sequencing (WGS) files, we typically support the VCF file format.

Important Compatibility Notes

File format alone does not guarantee compatibility. DNA files can vary based on the testing company, chip version, and data structure and content. If you upload your file and receive an error, or if you're unsure whether your file is compatible, our support team can help.

Need Help Testing Your File?

If you'd like us to test your file for compatibility:

  1. Reach out to us at support@selfdecode.com
  2. Let us know which testing company your file is from

We'll review it and let you know whether it can be used with SelfDecode.
