Hello,

The flag in a SAM/BAM dataset describes the alignment.

Format specification: https://samtools.github.io/hts-specs/SAMv1.pdf

Good (even if older) post with some key points summarized: https://www.biostars.org/p/60765/. Try the link in the second reply - the web tool accepts a flag and decodes it.

Thanks! Jen, Galaxy team
