Request: Allow retrieving (via link service) a range of sections of the US Code or CFR. about api HOT 1 CLOSED

@phulin -- sorry for the delay in response. It sounds like the range doesn't necessarily correspond to a CFR part, correct?

Are you looking for a single file in a specific format that would cover that range, or would returning a json response with relevant granuleIDs and download links suffice?

Lastly, do you want this via the link service or via the API?

If going via the link service, it would seem that you could accomplish this functionality by building a service that would take the citation (e.g. 29 U.S.C. §§ 201-219) and then programmatically create link service links for all of those sections, inclusive, using the following pattern:
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/{title}/{section}

https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/201
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/202
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/203
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/204
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/205
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/206
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/207
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/208
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/209
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/210
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/211
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/212
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/213
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/214
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/215
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/216
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/217
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/218
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/219

You could also specify different formats by appending a link-type, (default is pdf) e.g.:
https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/201?link-type=html

If you don't specify a year, it will retrieve the most recent version available in the system.

I hope this is helpful.
