City, Nantes Open Data

Verified Jul 2026

Nantes Métropole's open-data portal runs OpenDataSoft; the stored record's `API Key` requirement is stale — a live keyless GET against the v2.1 Explore API (`data.nantesmetropole.fr/api/explore/v2.1/catalog/datasets`) returned full JSON catalogue metadata with a wildcard `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header, and dataset exports in GeoJSON and CSV worked the same way with no key. An API key is only required for OpenDataSoft's write/administration endpoints, not for reading the catalogue's 590+ datasets.
