how to do gene annotation

Hello I have the following data about copy number variation for breast cancer (BRCA) and I want to do gene annotation according to the start , end locations, I downloaded the data from firebrowse

here is part of the data

You can download gene/transcript locations from UCSC here:

hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg19/database/refGene.txt.gz

That link is for the hg19 version of the human genome. I'm not sure which build is used in the TCGA file you have, but just make sure that the refGene.txt file you get from UCSC matched the genome build in your TCGA copy number file.
