Firstly, thanks so much for this tutorial and tool! It's genuinely exactly what I've been needing lately.

One question about querying NCBI using get-ncbi-data: is there a way to specify the users NCBI key? I think I remember from other NCBI tools that this helps the query speed, and also reduces the chances of the NCBI servers getting grumpy when a big query is made.

Hi @hemprichbennett,

I assume you are referring to this? Currently this is not implemented in get-ncbi-data. You can submit an issue here.
