Hello everyone, I am new to the forum and ran into an error trying to import a BIOM table into QIIME. I reviewed previously asked questions, but wasn’t able to find something similar hence I am asking for help. I am trying to import a BIOM table into QIIME2 using the command line interface. The code is below. I receive an error that I am not sure how to solve. I reviewed the sample BIOM table from the tutorials and the format appears the same, yet I get an error. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Using QIIME2-2019.7 natively installed on macOS Catalina
##import BIOM file
qiime tools import
–input-path RISK_all_samples.biom
–type "FeatureTable[Frequency]
–input-format BIOMV100Format
–output-path /Desktop/output/
##BIOM file header information

instead.
