Checking Dataset Access

CloudQuant Data Liberator provides built-in commands to check your dataset permissions, view available datasets, and access detailed schema information.

Commands

View Entitled Datasets

liberator.datasets(entitled=True)
Returns a JSON list of all datasets you currently have permission to access.

View All Datasets

liberator.datasets(entitled=False)
Returns a JSON list of all available datasets, including both those you can and cannot access.

Get Dataset Details

liberator.datasets(details=True)('daily_bars')
Retrieves a detailed description of a specific dataset. Replace 'daily_bars' with your target dataset name.

View Dataset Schema

liberator.datasets(schema=True)('daily_bars')
Returns the complete data dictionary and schema for a specific dataset. Replace 'daily_bars' as needed.
Use these commands to explore available data before writing queries. The schema information is especially useful for identifying column names to use with the fields parameter.
