…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Knoema MCP to Mastra AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect Knoema to Mastra AI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Build Resilient Pipelines in Mastra AI
The `search_data_series` tool allows your agent to programmatically locate specific global indicators across thousands of datasets. Mastra AI takes this capability and wraps it in a workflow engine that handles network timeouts automatically when talking to the MCP Server. If a query fails, the framework's exponential backoff kicks in before retrying. You can build a branch that falls back to `search_datasets` if the initial granular search returns zero results, keeping your data pipeline moving without manual intervention.
Audit Economic Data Parameters
The `get_dataset_metadata` tool pulls the exact structure of a dataset so your workflow knows how to query it. Your Mastra AI agent reads this schema to determine which dimensions are mandatory before attempting a bulk download. You chain this with `list_data_topics` and `list_data_units` to validate the incoming numbers. If the workflow expects percentages but the unit returns as USD, the agent catches the mismatch and routes the task to a human for approval.
Automate Routine Data Extraction
The `get_latest_dataset_data` tool retrieves the most recent figures for any tracked indicator. You schedule a Mastra AI workflow to run this every morning, pulling fresh statistics into your internal database. For historical backfilling, `get_data_series` accepts specific mnemonics to pull decades of records at once. The framework manages the pagination and rate limits, ensuring your application gets every data point without crashing the process halfway through.
