Hello @Theo

To make a request for temporary extra quota space at [UseGalaxy.fr](http://UseGalaxy.fr), you can ask at their server’s forum.

[User → Preferences → Terms](https://ifb-elixirfr.gitlab.io/usegalaxy-fr/welcome//common/terms.html)

> An extended quota can be requested (on [https://community.france-bioinformatique.fr/](https://community.france-bioinformatique.fr/)) for a limited time period in special cases (see default quota below).

Sharing your user name is probably enough if you want to keep your email address private! I’ve redacted it here for you already.

Hope this helps but please let us know if you have questions! 🙂

Remember that you can [move data around by URL](https://galaxyproject.github.io/training-material/faqs/galaxy/histories_transfer_entire_histories_from_one_galaxy_server_to_another.html) between any of the UseGalaxy servers! You can also attach your own storage at some of these. Which servers currently support automatic extended quotas and user-cloud storage options are both described below with more details.
