get_dataset

Read a served dataset's data package and full version history: licence, attribution, whole-table files and the version dates diff_versions and the version parameter take. It carries no rows. To answer from the rows use query_rows or count_rows, and for field names use list_fields. slug is lowercase letters, digits and hyphens, the part after /d/ in a dataset page URL, such as au-road-deaths. The whole history comes back in one answer, with no paging. It needs no key or sign-in, and costs nothing against the rate limit. A slug that is not served returns a 404 error.
