[ensembl-dev] Ensembl REST API | Bug in ld/:species/pairwise/:id1/:id2?

[Anja Thormann]

Hi Ramiro,

this is not a bug as such because we did not intend to keep the order of the input variants which we loose in our internal LD calculations. But I absolutely agree that this is causing confusions and we will update the endpoint to retain the order of the input variants in the output. This will be updated for our 98 release planned to be out in September.

Best wishes,
Anja
