Is an API Key required for OECD Data API?

No. The OECD REST API is a free and open service. This server works out of the box without any static credentials required.

What format is the data returned in?

The API returns data in the SDMX-JSON format, which includes detailed observations and metadata for economic series.

Can the agent list multiple datasets?

Yes. The `list_oecd_dataflows` tool retrieves the complete list of available dataflows and datasets from the OECD catalog.

About OECD Data API MCP Server

Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire macroeconomic research and policy auditing workflow with the OECD Data API, the authoritative source for global social and economic indicators. By connecting the OECD SDMX-JSON service to your agent, you transform complex statistical searches into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly retrieve historical datasets, audit regional economic trends, and query specific dataflows without you ever touching a data portal. Whether you are conducting international market research or managing regional policy constraints, your agent acts as a real-time data analyst, ensuring your intelligence is always verified and precise.

Google ADK natively supports OECD Data API as an MCP tool provider. declare Vinkius Edge URL and the framework handles discovery, validation, and execution automatically. Combine 3 tools with Gemini's long-context reasoning for complex multi-tool workflows, with production-ready session management and evaluation built in.

What you can do

Dataset Auditing — Retrieve high-resolution statistical data for thousands of OECD identifiers and maintain a clear view of global economic changes.
Indicator Oversight — Audit historical social and fiscal indicators to understand the longitudinal distribution of economic scale instantly.
Dataflow Discovery — Browse all available dataflows in the OECD catalog to identify relevant thematic markers for your research.
Macro Intelligence — Retrieve unique dataset identifiers and observation metadata to assist in deep-dive archival classification.
Operational Monitoring — Check API status to ensure your economic research workflow is always operational.

The OECD Data API MCP Server exposes 3 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Google ADK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

OECD Data API + Google ADK FAQ

Common questions about integrating OECD Data API MCP Server with Google ADK.

How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?

Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.

Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.

Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?

Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
