Leandro, As far as I can tell there are no real docs for the API. The best I’ve been able to find is what’s under the scripts/api directory. I believe the API is still considered a “beta” at best.
Galaxy team, are there any updates on the API, documentation plans, etc?

Where are the docs and information for the Galaxy API? Wondering if I could program this exact functionality in the script that the tool would execute. thanks, Leandro On Fri, Apr 15, 2011 at 4:28 PM, Dave Walton <dave.wal...@jax.org> wrote: I've essentially asked the same question of the list in the past and gotten no real response. I have the same interest, but from a workflow perspective. * A module that allows me to select multiple datafiles (say fastq files) * Then pass each data file to a separate instance of a workflow that runs tophat and cufflinks * then another module that takes the final outputs of each of the workflow runs and sends them to a final module that merges results. I am attempting to implement something like this using the API, though the API is still pretty green from my perspective. I think functionality like this built into the workflow editor would be a great addition.
