What’s connected.
Reference selected Benchling custom entities from accessible projects in Seal. Optional JSON copies contain entity fields, schema and registry details. Notebook entries, files and sequences are excluded.
Connection setup and permissions
An organisation admin connects the source, selects records and chooses the Seal groups that can read their captures. Sharing starts after review and a successful sync. Use @ in documents, comments and Neil. Disabling sharing blocks new reads; turning text copying off removes stored text; disconnecting deletes the copies. Original links use the reader’s source-system permissions.
Set up Benchling
- Create and install a dedicated Benchling app and grant it read access to the intended projects.
- Open Settings → Integrations → Set up Benchling, enter the tenant URL and app credentials, then choose Test and connect.
- Select custom entities and Seal groups, review text copying and enable the library.

Access and write-back
Reading records and writing back are separate decisions. Define which records are in scope, whose permissions apply and which changes require approval.
Data and failure handling
Agree the field mapping, identifiers, units and source of record. Test missing or duplicate data, interrupted transfers and recovery before relying on the connection.
Verification and release
Review the configured connection for its intended use. Keep the requirements, checks and evidence with the change, and approve the release through your team’s controls.
