Description

list_dataflows

Browse or keyword-search ISTAT datasets (dataflows). Each result has an id (the dataflowId you pass to get_data / dataflow_structure) and an English name. ISTAT publishes ~4,800 datasets, so always pass query to filter unless you really want the whole list. Example: list_dataflows({ query: "unemployment" }) or list_dataflows({ query: "GDP" }).

dataflow_structure

Get the structure (Data Structure Definition) of one ISTAT dataset: its ordered dimensions and, for each, the valid codes. Use this to learn how to build the dot-separated SDMX key for get_data. The key positions correspond to the dimensions in order; an empty position is a wildcard. Example: dataflow_structure({ dataflow_id: "101_1015" }).

get_data

Pull observations from an ISTAT dataset. key is a dot-separated SDMX dimension filter, one position per dimension in the order given by dataflow_structure; leave a position empty to wildcard it. Example: get_data({ dataflow_id: "101_1015", key: "A.IT...", start_period: "2021", end_period: "2023" }) selects annual (A), REF_AREA=IT (Italy), and wildcards the rest. Omit key (or pass "") to fetch all series — caution, this can be large. Returns decoded series with their dimension labels and per-period values.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "istat-it": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/istat-it/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Istat It data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
