Install Open Data in oterm

What you need first

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

Steps

1. Open ~/.codex/config.toml, or create it. The Codex CLI, its IDE extension and the ChatGPT desktop app share this file.
2. Add this table at the end of the file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "open-data-mcp": {
      "url": "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" }
    }
  }
}

3. Replace YOUR_AUTHORIZATION with your own value.
4. Save the file and restart oterm.

Check it worked

Ask oterm: 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 oterm 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 JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
