`knmi_file_url`

Pack: knmi · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/knmi/mcp

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/knmi_file_url for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Mint a temporary download URL for one file in a KNMI Data Platform dataset. Returns the signed URL, the content type, the byte size and when the file was last modified. The URL is short-lived and must be used promptly. Pass a filename from knmi_dataset_files, e.g. dataset “radar_reflectivity_composites” version “2.0” filename “RAD_NL25_PCP_NA_202609172205.h5”. Note the files are scientific binaries (NetCDF, HDF5, GRIB in tar) — this hands back a link to fetch, it does not decode them.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`dataset`	string	yes	KNMI dataset name, e.g. “radar_reflectivity_composites”.
`version`	string	yes	Dataset version string, e.g. “2.0”.
`filename`	string	yes	Exact filename from knmi_dataset_files, e.g. “RAD_NL25_PCP_NA_202609172205.h5”.
