ODATA Feed as source
Hi all,
I am trying to explore ODATE FEED option.
Trying to connect to DATA.gov using odata feed but its not working.
Could you provide any help
Thanks
Hi revansh,
I am not fimilar with OData. But based on my research, the Web site you were trying to connect via OData seems not support OData service. Go to Home page -> Developers -> APIs -> API Documentation. I would suggest you contact the developers at this page: https://www.data.gov/contact#question to confirm if it supports OData Feed or not.
Best regards,

Well https://www.data.gov/ is not an Odata feed, so that is why you cannot connect to it.
I haven't worked directly with data.gov but I know Quandl has an odata connector and they have tons of government data sets.
EDIT: The Quandl odata connector is actually 3rd party. My mistake.
