    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,
    Yuliana Gu

      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.
