Missing docs on portal API search by POST (doesn't take JSON?) #31

Closed shamseen closed 3 years ago

shamseen commented 3 years ago

Looking through readthedocs and the pdf, I haven't found how to structure the call without curl (I'm using javascript and axios).

All I know is that JSON isn't supported since I couldn't use the JSON shown by any of my rules.

Hi @shamseen , thanks for your feedback

Could you please create a ticket with our helpdesk to discuss programmatic searches of ENA data? https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/browser/support

Thanks and best, Sam

Hey, you're the guy that did the introduction video on ENA!

Also, I would recommend opening the discussion section on this repo for quicker responses by the community.

Haha, that's me! Hope you found it useful

Fair enough, it's just a lot easier to track these conversations through our ticketing system, as well as making sure they get seen by the right person

shamseen commented 3 years ago

No worries. But could you at least tell me how to make a post request? I honestly don't know where to find those instructions.

I'm not sure how to, which is why we use the helpdesk system: your ticket is with my colleague, who'll answer soon. They also indicated that they'll update the docs with this information too.
