dataset_details
Pack: datagov-ie · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)
No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/dataset_details for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.
Full dataset record by id or slug (CKAN package_show), including its resources. Each resource has a download “url” (often PDF/CSV/XLSX) and a “datastore_active” flag; resources with datastore_active=true can be read row-by-row via datastore_query using the resource “id”.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id | string | yes | Dataset id or slug, e.g. “budget” or “1968fourthamendmentcsv”. |
