Unfortunately using wget won't work in this case. The reason you have access to the history is your Galaxy cookie, which isn't shared with wget/curl.

You'll need to click on the export link in your Web browser to download the history to your local computer and then move it to a local server.

Thanks!
Just one ask : How can I download this compressed history : is it the same that :
wget url_of_exported_history
and copy the file from this command in a local server ?
Because this file is not an archive but a text file with html code

thanks again.

Ah, I see the issue: the Cistrome instance cannot be used anonymously (without login). It's not possible for one Galaxy instance to work with another instance's history because instances work with objects anonymously rather than using login credentials.

For now, you can download/copy the compressed history to a Web-accessible location (e.g. local web server, Dropbox) and import the history from that location. We'll look into improving this in the future.

Best,

Hi, thanks for your help.
I've tested your procedure and it doesn't work. I have the same error.

Sorry and thanks for the creation of the card.

This is likely a permissions issue: importing your history into another Galaxy instance requires the history to be accessible. Here's a solution that, while ugly, should work:

(1) Make the history accessible by going to Share/Publish and clicking the option to make it accessible.
(2) Export your history again.
(3) Use the history URL to import to another instance.

I've created a card for enhancements to this feature that will make this process easier in the future.

Hi all,
I'm trying to import an history from the web server to my local server.
First I've chosen "Export to File" in the history menu and I've seen a message with an url.
Second in my local server I've created a new history and I chosen "Import from File" in my new history menu.
I've pasted the url in the formular and A message says :
"Importing history from 'http://cistrome.org/ap/history/export_archive?id=################'. This history will be visible when the import is complete"

But there is nothing in my new history and it seems that no operation is running!!!

Is it normal?
Another idea to transfer an hitory and his datasets in another history?
Thanks.
julie
