Hey Ryan,

Sorry this fell through the cracks.  A script to import large sets of files to data libraries, for example, would be really easy to implement using the Galaxy API.  There are several examples in the /scripts/api folder of your distribution (https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/src/7f247bf156dfc7cfa7f764cf9757ae3839f0b72c/scripts/api/?at=default).  I can find an explicit example of this if you're interested.

Bumping this question....no response in over a week...

Hi all - I've recently come back to Galaxy to see how its progressed over the last few years.  The tools shed is completely new to me and will take some exploring on my part.

My immediate question is if there is a way to import a large number of samples associated with a project via a sample sheet (txt) file?  I have a text file with 3 columns: sample name, location of fastq files. 

I haven't seen a way to import this and haven't seen anything in the docs either.  I suspect the answer is no, but I'm hoping the answer is actually yes....?
