A list of individual public APIs maintained by the US government.

The data.gov catalog is powered by CKAN, a powerful open source data platform that includes a robust API. Please be aware that data.gov and the data.gov CKAN API only contain metadata about datasets. This metadata includes URLs and descriptions of datasets, but it does not include the actual data within each dataset.

The data.gov.ie API

Data.gov.ie is built using CKAN v2.2 (link is external), which provides a powerful API that allows developers to retrieve datasets, groups or other CKAN objects and search for datasets. There is full documentation (link is external) available for the CKAN API online.

Example API Calls

Get JSON-formatted lists of a site’s datasets or other CKAN objects: data.gov.ie/api/3/action/package_list data.gov.ie/api/3/action/tag_list Get a full JSON representation of a dataset, resource or other object: data.gov.ie/api/3/action/package_show?id=the-walled-towns-of-ireland data.gov.ie/api/3/action/tag_show?id=marine Search for packages or resources matching a query: data.gov.ie/api/3/action/package_search?q=museum data.gov.ie/api/3/action/resource_search?query=name:The%20Walled%20Towns%20of%20Ireland

api.data.gov is a free API management service for federal agencies. This API offers access to high level metrics for the APIs that are using the shared service. This API is used to power the api.data.gov metrics page.

This list contains the government API cases collected, cleaned and analysed in the APIs4DGov study "Web API landscape: relevant general purpose ICT standards, technical specifications and terms".

The list does not represent a complete list of all government cases in Europe, as it is built to support the goals of the study and is limited to the analysis and data gathered from the following sources:

• The EU open data portal

• The European data portal

• The INSPIRE catalogue

• JoinUp: The API cases collected from the European Commission JoinUp platform

• Literature-document review: the API cases gathered from the research activities of the study performed till the end of 2019

• ProgrammableWeb: the ProgrammableWeb API directory

• Smart 2015/0041: the database of 395 cases created by the study ‘The project Towards faster implementation and uptake of open government’ (SMART 2015/0041).

• Workshops/meetings/interviews: a list of API cases collected in the workshops, surveys and interviews organised within the APIs4DGov

Each API case is classified accordingly to the following rationale:

• Unique id: a unique key of each case, obtained by concatenating the following fields: (Country Code) + (Governmental level) + (Name Id) + (Type of API)

• API Country or type of provider: the country in which the API case has been published

• API provider: the specific provider that published and maintain the API case

• Name Id: an acronym of the name of the API case (it can be not unique)

• Short description

• Type of API: (i) API registry, a set, catalogue, registry or directory of APIs; (ii) API platform: a platform that supports the use of APIs; (iii) API tool: a tool used to manage APIs; (iv) API standard: a set of standards related to government APIs; (v) Data catalogue, an API published to access metadata of datasets, normally published by a data catalogue; (vi) Specific API, a unique (can have many endpoints) API built for a specific purpose

• Number of APIs: normally only one, in the case of API registry, the number of APIs published by the registry at the 31/12/2019

• Theme: list of domains related to the API case (controlled vocabulary)

• Governmental level: the geographical scope of the API (city, regional, national or international)

• Country code: the country two letters internal code

• Source: the source (among the ones listed in the previous) from where the API case has been gathered

An administrative API to manage the api.data.gov service.

api.data.gov is a free API management service for federal agencies. The api.data.gov Admin API implements the API Umbrella Admin API and can be used by api.data.gov agency admins to perform admin operations and to query their API analytics.

Identify API provides HTTP-based API for application developers to identify the information of a facility at a selected geographic location.

Search Nearby API provides HTTP-based API for application developers to find the facilities located within 1 km of the search location.

This is an api that provides continuous real time as well as historic data from the network of air quality monitoring stations that are part of the national air quality monitoring network managed in cooperation between the Environmental Protection Agency and Dublin City Council, as well as other stations set up by Dublin City Council to monitor local air quality conditions. This api also provides access to Dublin City Council's network of environmental sound level monitors. For more information, visit https://dublincityairandnoise.ie/

The GSA Discovery Market Research API.

Vector Map API is a XYZ Vector Topographic Map Tile Service which enables application developers to retrieve vector topographic map tiles. With the Vector Map, the map presentation can be further customized by the developer using the Map Presentation Style file.

The ERS content and data APIs (including our pre-made widgets for embedding charts) are currently out of service while we redesign our site. Check back here for updates--we'll keep you informed as to the progress. Contact us at webadmin@ers.usda.gov with questions.

The Data APIs provide programmatic access to select data sets.This record was taken from the USDA Enterprise Data Inventory that feeds into the https://data.gov catalog. Data for this record includes the following resources: https://www.ers.usda.gov/developer/ For complete information, please visit https://data.gov.

A dataset of all the meta-data for all of the datasets available through the data.gov.uk service. This is provided as a zipped CSV or JSON file. It is published nightly.

Updates: 27 Sep 2017: we've moved all the previous dumps to an S3 bucket at https://dgu-ckan-metadata-dumps.s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/ - This link is now listed here as a data file.

From 13/10/16 we added .v2.jsonl dump, which is set to replace the .json dump (which will be discontinued after a 3 month transition). This is produced using 'ckanapi dump'. It provides an enhanced version of each dataset ('validated', or what you get from package_show in CKAN API v3 - the old json was the unvalidated version). This now includes full details of the organization the dataset is in, rather than just the owner_id. Plus it includes the results of the archival & qa for each dataset and resource, showing whether the link is broken, detected format and stars of openness. It also benefits from being json lines http://jsonlines.org/ format, so you don't need to load the whole thing into memory to parse the json - just a line at a time.

On 12/1/2015 the organizations of the CSV was changed:

• Before this date, each dataset was one line, and resources added as numbered columns. Since a dataset may have up to 300 resources, it ends up with 1025 columns, which is wider than many versions of Excel and Libreoffice will open. And the uncompressed size of 170Mb is more than most will deal with too. It is suggested you load it into a database, ahandle it with a python or ruby script, or use tools such as Refine or Google Fusion Tables.

• After this date, the datasets are provided in one CSV and resources in another. On occasions that you want to join them, you can join them using the (dataset) "Name" column. These are now manageable in spreadsheet software.

You can also use the standard CKAN API if you want to search or get a small section of the data. Please respect the traffic limits in the API: http://data.gov.uk/terms-and-conditions

Lot Index API

Moby is a licensed dockless bike-share scheme within the Dublin region. This page includes an API developed according to the General Bikeshare Feed Specification (GBFS) (e.g.) information about vehicles, stations, pricing, etc. The current location of the vehicles is updated every five minutes. In addition, this page includes historical files of bike location data. Disclaimer - Please note that some of the historical files are empty due to historical data issues.
