How to link GDC ids to CCLE cell line names? Hello bioinformaticians,
I've recently downloaded few RNAseq data files from Genomic Data Commons Data (GDC) portal. These files belong to Broad institutes CCLE project.

Now the problem is that GDC portal do not provide CCLE cell line names:



So my question is how could I link the GDC ids (prefixes of File Names) to CCLE cell line names? 

I would imagine because it is an important step in the analysis, there should be some way to do that.
The filenames of those bams contain the cell line names. They are constructed:

SAMPLEID.CELL_LINE_NAME.REPLICATE.bam

Thus the first 5 cell lines in your screen capture are SK-N-F1, TE-9, CJM, HCI-H1915 and CAL-33. 

All the information that is need is also present in the experimental metadata xml file attached to each sample record. This is accessible by downloading it from the record on the website, or by querying the GDC metadata API (https://gdc.cancer.gov/developers/gdc-application-programming-interface-api).
