NCBI Datasets Genomes

Hello,
When retrieving genomes by taxon, I am getting this error message:

dataformat doesn’t recognize this input!
Error: unknown field “atgcCount”

My server is usegalaxy.org

I am not sure how to resolve this issue.

Thank you in advance!

Welcome @rnbrnbrnb

This is usually a parameter problem involving a mismatch between what this tool does, the type of data being requested and the outputs reported.

Using the default column selections and output, then layering on more, tends to work best. Removing part of that or replacing can lead to the problem you had. In short, all of the data must be anchored to a “genome” at NCBI, not the other types of fragment/sequence data.

If you want to share back your history with the query and error we can try to help more. Maybe there is another way to get the data you want into Galaxy. But also let us know if you solve this! :slight_smile:
