Hi Sean, @seandavi It looks like the GDC changed to the new API URL some time back. Those of us with old versions could not figure this out easily. I added a validator function to make sure, the user has the right version. There are still some issue with the data that the vignette accesses but I will create a separate issue. Thanks! -Marcel

The failures are due to existing errors when accessing data from the GDC. I can help update the examples. I have a UUIDhistory function in TCGAutils that can help translate old UUIDs to new UUIDs for the latest data release.
