Frequently asked questions
How can I search for specific information inside a dataset's file?
Use the search_datastore tool with the specific resource_id. You can provide a query string q to filter the rows and find exactly what you need within the data table.
Can I see which government department published a specific dataset?
Yes. You can use list_organizations to see all publishers or use get_package with the dataset ID to see the specific organization responsible for that data.
Is an API key mandatory to use this server?
No, the API key is optional. Most data on the Junta de Andalucía portal is public. However, providing a key via the JUNTA_API_KEY credential may help avoid rate limits during intensive usage.
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.
