Hi,

I have a list of fileuuids obtained from TCGA portal. I am trying to use GenomicDataCommons package to extract sample type(whether normal or tumor) and TCGA barcodes associated with input fileuuids. From the manual I can get to this

resp = cases() %>% filter(~ project.project_id=='TCGA-LUAD') %>%
  GenomicDataCommons::select(c(default_fields(cases()),'samples.sample_type')) %>%
  response_all()

Can someone guide me how to extract TCGA barcode and sample type from list of uuids?

Thanks

The answer can be found via Sean Davis: GenomicDataCommons Example: UUID to TCGA and TARGET Barcode Translation. Note that, once you infer the barcode from the UUID, you can then infer tumour|normal from the barcode.
