dataset_details
Pack: hdx · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/hdx/mcp
Full dataset record by id or slug (CKAN package_show), including its resources. Each resource has a “download_url”/“url” pointing at the actual data file (usually CSV/XLSX) — that is how you read the underlying rows, since HDX does not expose a keyless row query.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id | string | yes | Dataset id or slug, e.g. “idmc-idp-data-pak”. |
