Opendatasoft Overview

The Opendatasoft MCP server connects AI agents to public Opendatasoft portals through dataset search, metadata lookup, record queries, facet values, and instance metadata tools. It targets `public.opendatasoft.com` by default, while an `instance` hostname selects another portal. Use the hosted gateway for remote MCP access or run the package locally over stdio without a Pipeworx account. Public data calls are keyless, and the gateway also supports plain-language routing through `ask_pipeworx`.

Primary Use Cases for Opendatasoft:
  • Search public portals for datasets
  • Inspect dataset metadata before querying
  • Filter and paginate dataset records
  • Group records by field values
