`sdmx_find_dataflow`

Pack: sdmx-structure · 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/sdmx_find_dataflow for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Keyword-search a registry’s full dataflow catalogue by id or name substring. Use this to find the dataflow id to pass to sdmx_dataflow_structure when you only know a topic. Example: sdmx_find_dataflow({ registry: “bis”, query: “credit” }) or sdmx_find_dataflow({ registry: “oecd”, query: “unemployment” }). For Eurostat specifically, the eurostat pack’s own search_datasets tool searches its ~10,000-entry table of contents with richer metadata (last-update dates, time coverage) and is usually the better choice.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`registry`	string	yes	Which SDMX registry to query: ${REGISTRY_IDS.join(’, ’)}.
`query`	string	yes	Case-insensitive substring to match against dataflow id or name, e.g. “unemployment”, “credit”, “exchange rate”.
`agency`	string	no	Restrict to one maintaining agency id instead of the registry default, e.g. “OECD.SDD.NAD”.
`limit`	number	no	Max results to return (default 50, max 300).
