Hi Eric,
I've updated again the Python code in the wiki page since the previous
version was not correctly retrieving 'required_role' and
'final_destination' attributes for tools installed from a Tool Shed if
you was using the short version of the tool ID in job_conf.xml .
Best,
Nicola

Thanks Eric,
I'm sure this will be useful to many Galaxy admins!
I've edited a bit the wiki page, in particular I've updated the code
to use roles instead of groups, which is more appropriate in the
context of access control.
Best,
Nicola
