cBioPortal API endpoint malfunctioning

[Charles Olowookere]

the API is returning a 400 error for valid JSON requests and provide them with the simple, reproducible curl command that fails:n

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{\"geneIds\":[\"BRAF\"]}" "https://www.cbioportal.org/api/molecular-profiles/skcm_ucla_2016_mutations/mutations/fetch"

Hi Charles,

Thanks for contacting us. 

Please use entrezGeneIds instead of geneIds. You can try it out here:
