Ah, yes. That seems to have been added a couple months ago. The BioTeam appliance just missed that update by a week or two. I’ll go bug them. Thanks. FWIW, I am using bioblend, and I got my example from the bioblend documentation: http://bioblend.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api_docs/galaxy/all.html#module-bi... -john On Apr 10, 2014, at 5:42 AM, Nicola Soranzo <soranzo@crs4.it> wrote:

As far as I can figure out, the parameter map for running a workflow via the API is supposed to look like this:

{'blastn': {'param': 'evalue', 'value': '1e-06’}}

This doesn’t seem to allow for multiple parameters to a single tool. Is there a way to submit multiple parameters that I’m missing? For example:

{'blastn': {'param': 'evalue', 'value': '1e-06’, 'param': ‘identity_cutoff’, ‘value’: ’70’}}

…will not work. The dict() container doesn’t allow duplicate keys, it just overwrites the values.

Hi John, you are using the old and deprecated syntax, you can use instead:

{'blastn': {'evalue': '1e-06', 'identity_cutoff': 70}}

For more details look at _update_step_parameters() function documentation:

https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-dist/src/tip/lib/galaxy/webapps/galaxy/a...

Or look at this complete example:

Moreover, you may consider using the more high-level bioblend API:
