Returns the latest rows (newest-first). Add a SoQL |
| Run a raw SoQL query against any Los Angeles open-data resource (data.lacity.org) by its Socrata id (8-char like "2nrs-mtv8"). Full SoQL: where/select/group/order/limit/offset. Use la_datasets to find a resource id, or la_recent for the common ones. |
| Search the Los Angeles open-data catalogue (data.lacity.org) for datasets by keyword. Returns dataset names, descriptions, and Socrata resource ids to use with la_query. |
