About Umeå Open Data
Umeå Open Data provides a REST API for accessing open datasets published by the Umeå municipality through an Opendatasoft platform. The API follows the Opendatasoft Explore API v2 specification (v2.1), using the Opendatasoft Query Language (ODSQL) for querying, and returns JSON responses with hierarchical endpoint navigation and embedded links.
The API exposes a catalog of datasets with endpoints to list and query datasets, retrieve dataset metadata, and read individual records. Data can be exported in multiple formats including CSV, Parquet, GPX, and RDF/XML (DCAT), with the records endpoint subject to result limits while the export endpoints are unlimited. Additional endpoints support listing facet values and dataset attachments.
This is aimed at developers building applications or performing analysis on Umeå municipal open data, using standard HTTP GET requests against a documented OAS3/Swagger interface.
