How Do I Remove "Histories Shared With You By Others"?

Question: How Do I Remove "Histories Shared With You By Others"?

4.8 years ago by

Hello - I am trying to clean out my "Histories shared with you by others" page on the main public Galaxy server. I would like to remove old histories shared with me. I have tried two methods, neither of which allow me to remove these histories: 1. clicking the check box to a history shared with me, then clicking "Unshare" at the bottom of the page 2. clicking the drop down menu and then selecting "Unshare" In both cases, I get the error message "History is not owned by the current user". This behavior appears to be referenced in another recent thread from the sharer's side (http://user.list.galaxyproject.org/Trying-to-quot-unshare-quot-a -history-in-order-to-delete-td4656453.html). Any ideas on what is going on here? Best regards, Casey

Hi Casey, I just tested the UI "unsharing" for both of your cases and was unable to replicate the problem. Can you confirm that you are using the public Main Galaxy instance at http://usegalaxy.org ? And is this your account email? Please confirm and we can try to see what may be going on. For the other, prior, question you reference, that one was fully resolved and permissions were not a factor. The thread has a reply with a link to our sharing wiki/video. The UI is/was behaving as expected. To share/unshare, use the pull-down menus or use the forms available from the history menu. Let us know about where you are using Galaxy, and we can follow up with more testing, Thanks! Jen Galaxy team -- Jennifer Hillman-Jackson http://galaxyproject.org
