Actually, you can do this in workflows out of the box in Galaxy (as long as your instance is configured to send mail).

All you need to do is edit the workflow, select the step you want to be notified following, and add a Step Action-> Email Notification.

Hi,

Currently not. For local/cloud instances, you can install an extra tool for this from the toolshed:

Hi,

I am using the main galaxy instance and have submitted several processing steps that seem to have been scheduled for execution. Is there a way to get an email notification when such a processing step finishes?

many thanks,
Nickyo
