Data Europa Overview

The Data Europa MCP server connects AI agents to data.europa.eu, the European Union’s official open-data portal. It exposes tools for searching packages, retrieving a package by ID, and browsing organizations, groups, and tags through the portal’s CKAN-compatible API. Use the hosted gateway for MCP or HTTP access, or run the package locally over stdio without a gateway account. The service is keyless and suits agents that need to discover EU datasets and their metadata.

Primary Use Cases for Data Europa:
  • Search EU datasets about a topic
  • Inspect a dataset package by ID
  • List organizations publishing EU data
  • Filter discovery using groups and tags
