Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

This function connects to FlowRepository (flowrepository.org) via an XML-based API and retrieves metadata about a specified dataset in the form of a flowRepData object.

1	flowRep.get(id, use.credentials=TRUE,impc.details=FALSE)

`id`	An identifier of a FlowRepository dataset. List of available datasets can be obtained by calling the `flowRep.ls` function.
`use.credentials`	Whether to use your credentials (email and password) to access FlowRepository. Your credentials can only be used if previously set by calling the `setFlowRepositoryCredentials`, function. Otherwise, this parameter will be ignored. Using credentials will allow you to access private datasets that are either yours or that have been shared with you. Without credentials, you will have access to public datasets only. If you are accessing a public dataset and you have stored your credentials, then setting `use.credentials=FALSE` will skip authentication (login/logout) and therefore perform a little bit faster.
`impc.details`	Whether to include details about IMPC experiments related to that FlowRepository experiment. If set to TRUE and there are related IMPC experiment then details will be placed in the `impc.experiments` slot of the returned `flowRepData` object. Otherwise, the `impc.experiments` slot will be an empty list.
