Hi, we recently activated the feature for non admin users which allows them to upload a directory of files: ... # Add an option to the library upload form which allows authorized # non-administrators to upload a directory of files. The configured directory # must contain sub-directories named the same as the non-admin user's Galaxy # login ( email ). The non-admin user is restricted to uploading files or # sub-directories of files contained in their directory. #user_library_import_dir = None user_library_import_dir = /opt/galaxy/galaxy-share/ ... However we would like to restrict the permission to only link to their files without copying them into galaxy, is this possible?
