Government — entry 062 of 90
Open Government, Mexico
Datos.gob.mx is Mexico's national open-data portal (the bare `datos.gob.mx` host now redirects to `www`), run on CKAN. A keyless GET against `/api/3/action/package_list` returned full JSON metadata for over 1,700 published datasets, and `package_show` confirmed individual dataset detail (license, resources, format) is likewise readable without a key. The live response carried no `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header, so cross-origin browser calls are blocked despite the API itself being keyless — distinct from the INEGI statistical-indicator APIs, which require a token.
