Annotate list of Ensembl genes

I have a list of human genes and I would like to annotate them (e.g. GTeX, ClinVar, GWAS Catalog).

I have their Ensembl IDs: e.g. ENSG00000165916.8

Is there an open source package or online tool I can use to return a table of helpful annotations?

You can use gget info:

Terminal:

pip install gget
gget info ENSG00000165916.8

Python environment:

!pip install gget
import gget
gget.info("ENSG00000165916.8")

This will return extensive information including transcripts and descriptions curated from several databases including Ensembl, UniProt, and NCBI.
