Hi

I have a feature request for Galaxy histories:

Is it possible to add 'Downloads' to the 'Operations On Multiple Datasets' list, so that we could DL all downloadable results at once? Some of these tools produce 10+ results files and DLing one at a time is dreary.

Thanks

HI 

Personally in my workflows I set it up so all  the output datasets  I want  to download are automatically tagged  with something like 'export' .  

When  I periodically  want to download all  these tagged  datasets (even if they are distributed across multiple histories) :-

1     create a new history  which is  temporarily used to  copy all datasets  for downloading in a single step.

 2  go to user > saved datasets.  Then use Advanced Search to identify the datasets I want using the  tag (and name if necessary) . Check-box the files I want then click  'copy to current history' button at the bottom of the page.  

​3 goto the current history ( the one created in step one) then select history options> export to file.

4 delete temp history.

This works for me. Thanks Guy

ps if a 'delete all checked datasets' could be added  to the go to user > saved datasets  page this would make it easier to delete unwanted datasets (tagged as such) across multiple histories making disk space management easier.
