Get start and end positions of transcripts via REST API?

Question

[Tommy Carstensen]

How do I get the start and end positions of the Hemoglobin Z transcript ENSG00000130656 using a Python REST API? Is it possible? For example I want to get the start and end positions of these exons: http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Transcript/Exons?db=core;g=ENSG00000130656;r=16:152687-154503;t=ENST00000252951

I came up with the answer. I can simply access this url: http://rest.ensembl.org/overlap/id/ENSG00000130656.json?feature=exon

The documentation is quite comprehensive, once it is located: http://rest.ensembl.org/documentation/info/overlap_id
