Review Ensembl Genomes API information

[kimrutherford]

This might need updating:
https://www.pombase.org/faq/can-i-access-pombase-via-api

The supported Ensembl API is here: https://rest.ensembl.org/

But I can't find the equivalent for Ensembl Genomes. I didn't look very hard though.

I'll come back to this after the grant.

Ensembl Genomes have a documentation page about the API, but the links don't work:
https://fungi.ensembl.org/info/data/rest.html

I've contacted them about that.

I've contacted them about that.

I received this on Dec 9th. Nothing since then:

Thanks for getting in touch.

an update.
