Tutorials
- Getting Started with the Data.gov Catalog API — I can search the Data.gov catalog for U.S. government datasets — federal, tribal, and local — and return their titles, publisher names, and download links, but the actual data lives in the datasets' own files and APIs, not in this catalog endpoint.
Skills

- Search us government datasets — I can search the Data.gov catalog for U.S. government datasets by keyword or agency and return titles, publishers, and download links — but the actual data files live in each dataset's own API, not this catalog endpoint.
