Well, we had to stop somewhere. Our use cases include importing hundreds of samples, extracts, etc. down to raw bioassays, everything put into a single (or at least only a few) experiments. Since the raw data import also has to be done manually for each raw bioassay, we didn't see any real benefit for importing experiments.
There is no technical limitation. /Nicklas Bob MacCallum wrote: > Hello, > > I was wondering why there is not an Experiment item importer, just like all > the other new importers? > > I was hoping to use it to create a bunch of experiments which all contain > details of the same publication.
