get_profile_data

String corresponding to the Identifier of a list of cases

case_id

String corresponding to the Identifier of a genetic Profile of interest

gprofile_id

Character vector including one or more gene identifiers (ENTREZID or OFFICIAL_SYMOL)

glist

Retrieve Data corresponding to a Genetic Profile of interest from a given TCGA Study. 
This function is the workhorse of the TCGAretriever package and can be used to fetch data 
concerning several genes at once. For larger queries, the use of the fetch_all_tcgadata() 
function is mandatory

The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) is a program aimed at improving our understanding of Cancer Biology. Several TCGA Datasets are available online. 'TCGAretriever' helps accessing and downloading TCGA data hosted on 'cBioPortal' via its Web Interface (see <http://www.cbioportal.org/> for more information). 'TCGAretriever' is easy to use (get all the TCGA data you need with a few lines of code), enforces reliable data download (via 'httr'), and is suitable for downloading large volumes of data.
