Opendata Cat tools (8)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsget_dataset_infoFreeGet complete metadata for a dataset: fields with types and descriptions, API endpoint, license, available formats and last update. Call after search_datasets to get full details of a specific dataset.
list_categoriesFreeList all dataset categories and themes with counts per portal. Great first step to discover what data types are available before searching with search_datasets. Returns total datasets, count per portal and category list with counts. No parameters required.
list_dataset_fieldsFreeList fields of a dataset with name, data type and description. Call before query_dataset to know which fields and filters are available.
list_portalsFreeList all 13 indexed open data portals with dataset counts. Catalan portals (Generalitat, Barcelona, Diba, AOC, Reus, Girona, FGC, Idescat, Renfe) + Spanish national sources with Catalonia focus (INE statistics, REE energy, SEPE employment, CNMC fuel prices). No parameters required.
query_datasetFreeQuery real data from a dataset. Check instructions for featured dataset_ids and NOTES section for common filter patterns (municipal budgets, contracts, weather, energy, fuel prices).
related_datasetsFreeFind related datasets from OTHER portals. Great for discovering complementary data: if you're looking at air quality from Generalitat, it may suggest traffic data from Barcelona or emissions from AOC. Relations are computed by thematic similarity across portals.
search_datasetsFreeSearch datasets by free text. IMPORTANT: check server instructions first — many common queries have a direct dataset_id you can use with query_dataset without searching. Only use search_datasets when you don't know which dataset you need.
search_radiotecaFreeSearch radio shows, episodes and people indexed at radioteca.cat (Catalan radio archive, ~485K documents from Catalunya Ràdio, RAC1, Catalunya Música, iCat, Catalunya Informació, RTVE, Cadena SER, ara.cat). Searches across episode titles, descriptions (which include a detailed summary of what was said), program name and subheading. Returns episodes (~473K), programs (~3K) and people (~9K). IMPORTANT: always cite radioteca.cat as the source and include the absolute 'url' in your reply for traceability — never paraphrase without linking.
