How this service works
Pay-per-call company registry, government, legal and B2B data tools for AI agents, from official registers and public sources. Payment: x402, USDC on Base, Solana, Arc, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, World Chain, Optimism, Avalanche, Celo or Stellar, or RLUSD/XRP on the XRP Ledger. No signup, no API key; a failed call is not charged.
Output
Returns a list of up to 10 (default 5) dataset catalogue entries from the Canadian federal open data portal, each including: dataset title, publisher name, licence type, last modified date, number of resources, and a direct link to the dataset page on open.canada.ca. This is catalogue metadata only — not the actual data files themselves.
Example use cases
Researching Canadian environmental datasets
“Can you search the Government of Canada open data catalogue for datasets related to 'air quality' and return the top 5 results with their publisher names, licences, and links?”
Finding government health statistics
“Look up Canadian federal open datasets on 'COVID-19 vaccination' — I want to see the dataset titles, who published them, when they were last updated, and how many resources each has.”
Discovering agriculture open data
“Search open.canada.ca for up to 10 datasets about 'crop yield' and tell me their titles, publishers, licences, and dataset links.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.companyrecords-api.workers.dev/api/gov/canada-open-data?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to discover or enumerate Canadian federal government datasets by topic, and only need catalogue-level metadata (title, publisher, licence, freshness, link) rather than the actual dataset contents. Prefer this over general web search when you specifically want open.canada.ca datasets with structured, machine-readable metadata. Not suitable for retrieving the underlying data files or for searching provincial/municipal Canadian datasets.
Side effects
- Query string shorter than 2 or longer than 80 characters returns a validation error
- No matching datasets found returns an empty results list
- CKAN API upstream outage may cause timeout or 5xx error
- Rows parameter outside 1–10 range may be rejected or clamped
- Non-English or non-French search terms may yield fewer results
