How to upload your 23andMe genome data to KnowYourGenetics.com
These instructions are intended to help you to export your genome data from 23andMe, and into KnowYourGenetics.com.
1. First, use your internet browser, such
as Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer
(IE), or Safari to go to
http://www.23andme.com.
2. When you arrive, you’ll need to sign
into your 23andMe account. Do this
by clicking on the “Sign In” link in the
upper right portion of the page.
3. When you see the “Sign In” dialog,
enter your email address and
password in the appropriate fields,
and click “Sign In” to proceed.
4. Once you have signed into 23andMe,
you will need to click on the drop-
down menu in the upper-right
portion of the page. From the drop-
down menu, select “Browse Raw
Data”.
5. Once the “Browse Raw Data” page
loads, click on the “Download” link in
the upper-right portion of the page.
6. You will then be presented with a
form. In this form, you must enter
your 23andMe password, and give
the answer to the Secret Question
that you set up when you created
your 23andMe account.
In the “Profile” field, choose the set
of data that you wish to download.
In the “Data Set” field, choose “All
DNA”.
Once you have completed these
steps, click the “Download Data”
button in the lower-right portion of
the page.
7. If the previous steps were performed
correctly, you will be taken to a page
where you can download your
genome data. The download should
start automatically. If it does not, use
the “Click Here” link to start the
process.
Make sure you remember the place
where you save the downloaded
data.
8. Use your internet browser to go to
http://www.knowyourgenetics.com.
9. Log into Know Your Genetics. Then,
either click on the “Enter Your Test
Results” button on the main page, or
the “Add a Test” button in the Test
Information page.
10. On the “Add an MPA Test” screen, fill
in all of the required fields, such as
“Test Name”, and the “First Name”,
“Last Name”, and “Birth Date” fields,
if you are entering test data on
behalf of another.
11. Once you have filled in all of the
necessary fields click on the
“Browse” button to select your
23andMe genome data file.
12. Once the 23andMe data file has been
selected, and all other required fields
have been filled, click the “Upload
My 23andMe Genome Data” button.
Once the “Upload My 23andMe
Genome Data” button has been
clicked, file must be uploaded for
processing. Do not interrupt this
process before it is finished. The
speed of this operation will depend
on the upload speed of your Internet
Service Provider. On a broadband
connection with a 1 megabit per
second (1Mbps) upload speed, the
process will take 2-3 minutes.
13. When the process completes, there
are two possible outcomes. If the
uploaded data was processed
successfully, and there were no
errors, the data will be saved
automatically, and a success message
will be shown.
14. If any errors occurred during the
process, an error message will be
shown. Any data fields that the
process could fill in will be pre-
populated, but they should all be
reviewed for accuracy prior to saving.
If any errors occur, review the results
prior to saving the data.
