    summary: >-
      open NRW runs CKAN and exposes a live, standardized open-data catalog API. The
      endpoint was probed and returned a valid CKAN JSON response reporting approximately 10,579 datasets (CKAN version 2.10.8).
      Because it runs CKAN, the full standard action/search API surface is available and consistent with all other CKAN portals.
    endpoints:
      - url: https://open.nrw/api/3/action/status_show
