I am using the following REST API: https://rest.ensembl.org/documentation/info/vep_hgvs_get
An example of the code for this is as follows:
server = "https://rest.ensembl.org" ext = "/vep/human/hgvs/ENSP00000401091.1:p.Tyr124Cys?" r = requests.get(server+ext, headers={ "Content-Type" : "application/json"})
On the documentation page, it says it has an optional parameter as follows:
Name | Description | Example Values |
---|---|---|
dbNSFP | Include fields from dbNSFP, a database of pathogenicity predictions for missense variants. Multiple fields should be separated by commas. See dbNSFP README for field list. (plugin details) | LRT_pred,MutationTaster_pred |
Does anyone know how I would incorporate the dbNSFP value into this REST API query?

Answer
You can by using params
e.g.
server = "https://rest.ensembl.org" ext = "/vep/human/hgvs/ENSP00000401091.1:p.Tyr124Cys?" params = {"dbNSFP": "LRT_pred"} r = requests.get(server+ext, params=params, headers={ "Content-Type" : "application/json"})
