list_metrics
Pack: ukhsa · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/ukhsa/mcp
Shortcut to list all available metric names for a fully-specified location — supply all five levels (theme, sub_theme, topic, geography_type, geography) at once rather than calling navigate iteratively. Returns metric names like “COVID-19_cases_casesByDay” ready to pass to get_metric_data.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
theme | string | yes | e.g. “infectious_disease”. |
sub_theme | string | yes | e.g. “respiratory”. |
topic | string | yes | e.g. “COVID-19”. |
geography_type | string | yes | e.g. “Nation”. |
geography | string | yes | e.g. “England”. |
