Hi,

I already asked a similar question to the Galaxy mailing list toward this topic, but it didn't quite solve my problem.
I was seeking help on a way to create a tool which would be able to retrieve all the details (the information you get when clicking on the "eye" icon in a job in the history) for all jobs from an history. This tool would simply create sort of a log file which would contains all the parameters used for each job in the history.

I am not interested by retrieving the actual datasets, but only by the "details" information related to the jobs.

As I have access to the database, I could create a tool which would access the right tables and retrieve all this information.
Although to achieve that, I think I would need to retrieve the history ID first (to be able to retrieve the information related to that particular history from the database).

My question is then: Is it possible, from a tool, to retrieve the history ID of the current history?
If not, would it be possible to make some changes in galaxy's files, that would make the history ID appear somewhere on the galaxy page, so the user could manually enter the history ID as a tool parameter?

Thank you all for your help.  This is greatly appreciated!!

Thanks,
Jean-François
