Any ideas on how to do this? I'm trying to obtain a list of datasets that are in a Shared Data Library. I can obtain the Library ID and FolderIDs using BioBlend. However, I now want to get a list of dataIDs from within the Library/Folder structure. I don't see a function which accomplishes this in BioBlend. The closest thing I could find is "show_folders" (under "Libraries"). However, this seems to just provide information regarding the folder and not its contents. Is there a way to list the contents of a "Shared Data Folder"? There seems to be similar functionality for what I'm after in "History" (e.g. show_matching_datasets) but not for "Library". Any help would be greatly appreciated! On Fri, Feb 24, 2017 at 10:29 AM, D K <danielfortin86@gmail.com> wrote:

This is as far as I've gotten:
s = gi.libraries.show_folder(LibID, folder_id = subfolderID)
print(s)
{u'parent_library_id': u'd413a19dec13d11e', u'update_time':
u'2017-02-24T18:10:02.789955', u'description': u'170124_M02550_0174_000000000-AV8FJ', u'name': u'170124_M02550_0174_000000000-AV8FJ', u'deleted': False, u'item_count': 2, u'parent_id': u'Ff1b9846ab84237e7', u'genome_build': u'?', u'model_class': u'LibraryFolder', u'id': u'F84ffe6fca6c4fbda', u'library_path': [u'2017', u'170124_M02550_0174_000000000-AV8FJ']}
There are two items (item_count) as expected, how do I get the actual dataset IDs?
Thanks!
