You can also query NCBI's data from UCSC's API (https://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/api.html) in the following fashion:

https://api.genome.ucsc.edu/getData/track?genome=hg38;track=ncbiRefSeq;maxItemsOutput=100

Although better to query the original source when possible.

Hello, @Carambakaracho

Do you know which command or API can return GFF contents like this format ?

NC_000001.10 RefSeq region 1 249250621 . + . ID=NC_000001.10:1..249250621;Dbxref=taxon:9606;

if I only have every chromosome location range ,like chr1:1-1345673, is there any API command to support with returning like above GFF format contents ?

Thanks !

My apology, I'm a bit rusty using these commands, they're not in the focus of my job anymore.
