Frequently asked questions
How can I find out which statistical tables are available for a specific study?
Use the list_resources tool with the specific operationId. It will return a list of all available resources (tables) associated with that statistical operation.
Can I retrieve the statistical data in different languages?
Yes. When using the get_data tool, you can specify the lang parameter. Supported languages typically include Catalan ('ca'), Spanish ('es'), and English ('en').
What formats are available for downloading data?
The get_data tool allows you to choose between 'json', 'xml', and 'csv' formats via the format parameter, making it easy to integrate with different analysis tools.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
