[ensembl-dev] back-referencing rapid-release protein identifiers

Hello support,

For new OrthoDB v12, we have chosen a number of Rapid release Ensembl genomes due to its quality, as assessed by BUSCO score. However, the protein identifiers generated by analysis,  e.g. ENSP05155007416.1 are not findable, with or without version index at the end, via generic Ensembl search:
https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ebisearch/search?db=allebi&query=ENSP05155007416.1&requestFrom=searchBox

I am aware the project does provide a dedicated search engine at https://rapid.ensembl.org/Multi/Search/New?db=core , arguably a multi-species one, however it finds the id only

  1.  in version-less form, e.g. ENSP05155007416, not ENSP05155007416.1
  2.  along with species name

The resulting URL is cumbersome to construct, as even in its minimalistic form, it includes species name and assembly, e.g.
https://rapid.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens_GCA_018503575.1/Transcript/ProteinSummary?db=core;p=ENSP05155007416

My question is if you could suggest a simpler way to back-reference such protein identifiers in its original form with version, but without knowing species and assembly ?

thanks
Dmitry.
