• List datasetsList what the portal publishes: eighty datasets across eleven domains, from the Union Budget to crime statistics, each with the government source behind it. Narrow by domain or search the descriptions. The catalogue is held in the integration rather than fetched, so this costs no request and is the cheapest way to find out what is available before asking for it.
• Get a domain summaryRead the headline figures for one of the eleven domains: the numbers its dashboard leads with. The budget's total spending and fiscal deficit, the economy's growth and inflation, crime's totals and conviction rate. Rupee figures are quoted in crore, which reads as a meaningless run of digits, so a readable form is returned alongside: 5065345 comes back also as 50.65 lakh crore.
• List indicatorsList the indicators a domain tracks, with what each measures and in what unit. An indicator carries either a national year-by-year series or a state-by-state breakdown, never both, and which one depends on the domain. The response says which each has, so the next step asks the right question: 'Compare states' or 'Get a trend'.
• Compare statesRank the states on one indicator: which has the highest crime rate, the lowest literacy, the most forest cover. This is the question most of this data exists to answer, and it works across eight of the eleven domains. Every state comes back with its rank and value, plus the national average and the two ends of the range. Name a state to get its own standing alongside. Asking a domain that publishes national figures instead gets an error saying so and pointing at 'Get a trend'.
• Get a trendRead an indicator's history as a year-by-year series, with the first and latest values, the change between them, and the peak and trough. Use it for 'how has GDP growth moved' or 'what has inflation done since 2020'. The Economic Survey and RBI domains publish their indicators this way; the other eight break down by state instead, and asking one of those gets an error pointing at 'Compare states'.
• Get a datasetFetch any one of the portal's eighty datasets whole, exactly as it is published. The escape hatch for everything the shaped actions do not cover: the budget's Sankey flows and treemaps, ministry-level allocations, the justice pipeline, candidate profiles. Run 'List datasets' to see what there is.
• Look up a termRead a domain's glossary, or one term in particular. Every domain ships definitions written in plain language, each with a fuller explanation, an example of the term in use and the related terms worth reading next. Good for putting a definition beside a figure rather than leaving somebody to work out what a fiscal deficit is.
• Search questions and answersSearch the portal's set of plain-language questions about this data, each with a short answer and a link to the section it came from. There are a hundred and sixty of them across all eleven domains: how much the government spends, why young people cannot find jobs, which state is safest. Useful for an explainer, for grounding a chatbot, or for finding which dataset answers a question before going to fetch it.
• Check the portal statusCheck the portal is reachable and report which year it is publishing under. The year is part of every file path, so a workflow that stores results is worth stamping with it, and a change here is the signal that the paths have moved. Also returns when the data was last refreshed and the licence the data carries.
