Tabular Data Endpoints

A guide to accessing, filtering, and integrating HDX data through the Tabular Data Endpoints.

Introduction

The HDX Tabular Data Endpoints provide programmatic access to a number of tabular datasets hosted on HDX. It supports features like customizable queries and dataset joins to enable seamless integration into external tools and systems. By allowing real-time querying of tabular data, HDX Tabular Data endpoints makes it easier for developers, analysts, and humanitarian responders to automatically integrate HDX data into their workflows.

The HDX Tabular Data endpoints are powered by the CKAN DataStore extension.

The following documentation is intended for analysts and technical audiences to configure the endpoints, troubleshoot, integrate with tools, and learn from working examples.
