la_recent

Pack: data-la · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/data-la/mcp

Recent records from a common Los Angeles open dataset (data.lacity.org) by friendly name — no Socrata id needed. PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for “recent crime in Los Angeles / LA”, “LAPD arrests”, “LA building permits”, “MyLA311 requests”, “active businesses in LA”. Names: crime, arrests, businesses, permits, 311. Returns the latest rows (newest-first). Add a SoQL where to filter; for anything else use la_query. (Note: LA 311 is partitioned by year — the shortcut points at the latest year; use la_datasets for other years.)
