Short answer
How do I find Brazilian export datasets with my AI?
Your AI agent uses the MDIC Connector to search the official portal for trade packages and metadata. It pulls the specific datasets you need so you can analyze them immediately. You'll see how the agent navigates the portal below.
Where your data lands

How this task behaves
- 01
Can the AI download files directly to my computer?
No. The AI fetches the resources through the portal so you can read or analyze them in your chat, but it doesn't manage your local file system.
- 02
Can the AI change any data in the MDIC portal?
No. The tools only allow the AI to search and retrieve information. It cannot modify, delete, or upload any data to the MDIC system.
- 03
Does the AI see all Brazilian trade data?
The AI can only see what is available through the MDIC portal's searchable packages and resources.
- 04
Can I ask for data from a specific year?
Yes, as long as that data is included in the packages available in the MDIC portal.
- 05
Will the AI tell me if a package is empty?
Yes, the agent uses the package metadata to check for available resources before attempting to fetch them.
