Hi all,

I'm using GDC to bulk download RNA-seq data from TCGA. I'm able to download data just fine, but the filenames are the UUIDs, as shown below:

https://portal.gdc.cancer.gov/files/c85a6f34-7b6b-4677-beac-44f06bcc5c32

What I really want are the Entity IDs, also in the above link. Is there a way to convert from one to the other in bulk? Seems like it should be simple but I couldn't find a way to do this on the GDC data model pages: https://gdc.cancer.gov/developers/gdc-data-model and https://docs.gdc.cancer.gov/API/Users_Guide/Search_and_Retrieval/

Thanks very much for your help!
