Hi Brandon,
Thanks :)
I will use e93.rest.ensemb.org <http://e93.rest.ensemb.org/>

Please let us know when the issue will be fixed. (gwas-info at ebi.ac.uk <mailto:gwas-info at ebi.ac.uk>)

We will provide an update once we have a better idea of how this issue should be resolved. In the meantime, we suggest you use the release 93 (dec2017) database to get external names for RefSeq import genes.
