Dear LMFDB Support Team,

I am a graduate student working on a research project on degree-7 polynomials and their Galois groups. I encountered issues accessing the data:

- Problem: "Download file too large" error when attempting to download degree-7 number fields.
- URL: https://www.lmfdb.org/NumberField/?degree=7
- Additional Issue: API endpoint https://www.lmfdb.org/api2/numberfields/fields returns 404.


Please advise on how to proceed or provide the requested data.
Thank you for your assistance!

Best regards,
Jurgen Mezinaj

Downloads are limited to a million rows, which your query slightly exceeds.  You can get around this by splitting you query into a few pieces (e.g. by restricting the signature or putting bounds on the discriminant).  The api2 endpoint has not been supported for a while and 404 is the correct response, what link did you follow to get there?

I will also add that there are other access options described here, though Drew's suggestion of splitting up by signature is probably faster for you to implement.
