[ensembl-dev] API access to pre.ensembl.org genomes

[Anne Parker]

Hi Simon

Unfortunately our pre databases are not on a publicly accessible database server, so there's no way to get at them remotely with the API.

We do provide FTP dumps on request, however, so if that would help, please email our helpdesk for more details:

Cheers

Anne

I'd like to do some queries against the GalGal4 chicken assembly which is still in pre, but seems to have the feature annotations I'd actually need, however it doesn't show up in the registry from the latest official API download.
