OpenAPI Specification

openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: AmeriCorps Open Data Catalog API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: 'AmeriCorps publishes research, evaluation, and program data through its open

    data portal at https://data.americorps.gov, which is built on the Socrata

    Open Data (SODA) platform. Datasets are accessible programmatically through

    the standard Socrata views and resource endpoints.


    Each dataset is identified by a four-by-four (`xxxx-xxxx`) identifier and can

    be queried via the `/resource/{dataset_id}.{format}` endpoint using SoQL

    (Socrata Query Language) parameters such as `$select`, `$where`, `$order`,

    `$limit`, and `$offset`.
