Welcome to the wiki page for FISS, the (F)ireCloud (S)ervice (S)elector.

FISS is a programmatic interface to FireCloud (FC), providing a set of low- and high-level Python bindings to the FireCloud API, as well as UNIX bindings for command line usage. By wrapping the FireCloud RESTful API in this manner, our hope is to provide an interface that resonates more closely with the majority of expected FC users--supporting interaction with FC in memes familiar to them, as biomedical researchers & informaticians rather than database or web programmers
