2. Interfacing with Transient Name ServerΒΆ

GOATS also supports communication with the Transient Name Server (TNS) by using the tom-tns plugin, which is maintained by LCO. Users can thus submit transient discovery and/or classification report to TNS directly from the GOATS interface (see the video below).

Note

Make sure to register your TNS credentials on GOATS (see Managing Credentials). This needs to be done only once and is required before you can submit any report to TNS.
