Hi all,<div><br></div><div>I have some previously exported Histories saved as files. I want to import them to Galaxy but I can&#39;t work out how. I suspect I&#39;m missing something basic! </div><div><br></div><div>When I go to the History panel drop-down menu and select &#39;Export to File&#39;, I get a downloaded tar.gz file.</div>
<div>When I select &#39;Import from File&#39;, I get a text box that asks me for the Archived History URL. But, I don&#39;t have a URL - I have a file on my local machine which I got by exporting as above. </div><div><br>
</div><div>I have been able to import Histories directly from running Galaxy instances, by the way, I just can&#39;t work out how to do it from a file. Since it&#39;s possible to export them to a file in the first place, I am guessing that there&#39;s a way to import them too?</div>
<div><br></div><div>I noticed that the forms for importing Histories and importing Workflows (.../workflow/import_workflow) are different in that the Workflows version explicitly asks for either a URL or for a local file. So, I have been able to successfully import Workflows from json files, but am confused about Histories.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks for any help!</div><div><br></div><div>Clare</div><div><div><br></div>-- <br><br>Clare Sloggett<br>Research Fellow / Bioinformatician<br>Life Sciences Computation Centre<br>Victorian Life Sciences Computation Initiative<br>
