Output

Example use cases
Finding federal health datasets
“Can you search open.canada.ca for datasets related to COVID-19 vaccination and list the top results with their English titles and which government department published them?”
Fetching a specific dataset by ID
“Fetch the details for the Canadian federal open data dataset with ID 0032ce54-c5dd-4b66-99a0-320a7b5e99f2 — I need its title in both English and French, the organization behind it, and how many resources it has.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://api.maxwellinternational.ai/v1/gov/ca/open-data?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to discover or retrieve metadata about Canadian federal government datasets from open.canada.ca, especially when bilingual (English/French) metadata is needed or when you want to identify how many federal datasets exist on a given topic. Prefer this over general web search when structured, machine-readable dataset metadata is required for downstream processing or research workflows.

- Invalid dataset ID returns an error or empty result
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 Payment Required
- Upstream open.canada.ca portal unavailability causes fetch failure
- Query parameters missing or malformed return validation errors
