I’m looking at this tree:  
[https://nextstrain.org/ncov/north-america?c=legacy\_clade\_membership&p=full&r=country](https://nextstrain.org/ncov/north-america?c=legacy_clade_membership&p=full&r=country)  
Is there a way to download the accessions for a subtree? I understand that the GISAID sequences are not distributable from your site, but is there a way to get the other tree data (excluding sequences) behind the visualized tree?

Hi @yzhang2168 – if you click “Download data” in the footer of that page, then download the TSV representing “Selected metadata” then you’ll get metadata for the subtree you’ve zoomed to, including `gisaid_epi_isl`. There are other download options there which may also be useful.

Now I see it. Thanks!  
I had the full screen option so none of the options were shown.
