Class: Identifier

A string used as a resolvable (external) identifier for an entity. This should be a CURIE in the form <database_prefix>:<local_identifier>. Bioregistry is used as the canonical reference for CURIE database prefixes; please use the prefix exactly as written in the Bioregistry entry.

__

If the string cannot be resolved to an URL, it should be added to the Name table instead.

__

This table is used for capturing external IDs. The internal CDM identifier should be used in the *_id field (e.g. feature_id, protein_id, contig_collection_id).
