Thanks for the response. I am not seeing this behavior in my workflows. When I go to run the workflow, a gatk dbsnp file is the default selected for all my input dataset steps, even though some of them must be fastqillumina or bed/interval files, etc (depending on the step they are wired into). All files in my history are exposed in the drop down for each input dataset step, vs. narrowing it down by type. Ann On Oct 12, 2011, at 1:30 PM, Dannon Baker wrote:
Ann,
Unless I misunderstand what you're asking for, this should already be the case. For instance, if a workflow step takes in a file of 'tabular' type, only tabular files (and subtypes, including interval, etc.) should be presented as dropdowns in the list. Types such as plain text, binary files, etc., should be excluded. Are you seeing other behavior?
Thanks for using Galaxy!

I am developing a custom workflow in galaxy. I have 4 input files that need to be fed into various steps of the workflow. I would like to be able to specify a data type for the inputs such that the pre-populated drop downs are filtered to datasets of the appropriate type as well as being able to do some simple validation before the workflow begins. Is there someway to do this?
Thanks much,
