Install Open Data in Goose

What you need first

  • Goose, installed.
  • Nothing else: the server runs on its publisher's machines and Goose connects to it.
  • Your own value for YOUR_AUTHORIZATION.

Steps

  1. Open ~/.config/goose/config.yaml. On Windows it is %APPDATA%\Block\goose\config\config.yaml.
  2. Add this entry. If the file already has extensions, add only the entry inside it.
extensions:
  "open-data-mcp":
    type: streamable_http
    name: "open-data-mcp"
    enabled: true
    uri: "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=dataandbeyond/eu-company-verify,dataandbeyond/dk-statistics,dataandbeyond/scholar-search,dataandbeyond/pubmed-search,dataandbeyond/eu-tenders,dataandbeyond/france-company-search,dataandbeyond/nordic-company-registry,dataandbeyond/clinical-trials,dataandbeyond/vin-decoder-recalls,dataandbeyond/weather-forecast"
    headers: { "Authorization": "YOUR_AUTHORIZATION" }
    env_keys: []
    envs: {}
    timeout: 300
  1. Replace YOUR_AUTHORIZATION with your own value.
  2. Save the file and start a new Goose session.

Check it worked

Ask Goose: List the tools of open-data-mcp.

If it does not start

401 Unauthorized
The endpoint wants a sign-in or a key. Sign in when Goose asks, or check the value in place of the placeholder.
The server starts, but its tools fail
A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
Nothing changes after a restart
The file is not valid YAML any more. Check that the entry is indented like the lines around it.
