FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How can I search for datasets related to a specific topic like 'Health'?

You can use the search_packages tool with the query 'saúde'. The agent will return a list of matching datasets available in the portal.

Can I perform SQL queries on the data directly?

Yes! If a resource is stored in the DataStore, you can use the datastore_search_sql tool to run standard SQL queries against the resource ID.

How do I find which city departments have published data?

Use the list_organizations tool to see all registered entities. Then, use get_organization with a specific ID to see all datasets owned by that department.

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.
