negative.code: Please note that there is no loss of information in the new representation compared to the old one. Previously, haplotypes and interactions were either not mapped at all or only the first SNP in the sequence was mapped.

  ==== [[faq-G1]]1. Is there a way of programmatically retrieving data from the GWAS Catalog?
  
  The GWAS Catalog REST API is now available for beta testing at http://www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/beta/rest/. Please note that as this is only a beta release, we do not guarantee the stability of the endpoints. We make every effort to group major changes into a single software release, which we communicate to users via our \gwas-announce@ebi.ac.uk mailing list. link:++mailto:gwas-announce-join@ebi.ac.uk?subject=subscribe&body=Please subscribe me to receive GWAS Catalog updates++[Subscribe here].
  
  
  ==== [[faq-G2]]2. How do I use the GWAS Catalog REST API?
  
  link:http://www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/beta/rest/docs/api[Full technical documentation] for the GWAS Catalog REST API as well as link:http://www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/beta/rest/docs/sample-scripts[usage examples] are available on the REST API beta site.
