Datasets node

The Datasets node gives you instant access to curated, ready-to-use public datasets. Whether you're experimenting, teaching, or building quick prototypes, these built-in collections save time and spark ideas — no setup required.

What can it do?

• Load structured datasets with a single click — no source configuration needed
• Explore real-world data instantly (health, finance, science, etc.)
• Use datasets as a starting point for visualizations or AI-assisted flows
• Great for learning, testing, demos, or telling data stories

How to use it

1. In your flow, choose the Datasets node
2. Select from a list of built-in datasets (see below)
3. The dataset loads as a table and becomes available like any other data source
4. Connect it to transform, visualize, or enrich with other nodes

No credentials, no URLs, no copy-pasting — just pick and go.

Available datasets

Name	Description	Sample columns
COVID-19 cases	Global confirmed case numbers by date	country, date, cases
Global GDP	World Bank GDP per country (latest)	country, year, gdp
Surface temperatures	Monthly land/ocean temps since 1880	year, month, anomaly
Lunar data	Info on moons in the solar system	planet, moon, radius_km
World population	UN population estimates by year/country	country, year, population
Country metadata	Country codes, regions, languages	name, code, region

More datasets are added regularly — stay tuned in the app.

Example

Say you want to visualize how global temperatures have changed over time:

1. Add a Datasets node
2. Select Surface temperatures
3. Connect it to a chart node
4. Watch the trend unfold from 1880 to today 🌍📉

Why use precompiled datasets?

• No setup: instantly available and structured
• Useful for AI demos, charts, or analysis templates
• Reliable, sourced from open data repositories
• Makes onboarding easier for new users or students

Tips

• Pair a dataset with a filter or grouping node to narrow focus
• Use country metadata to enrich other datasets (join by country code)
• Combine multiple datasets to tell richer stories (e.g., COVID + GDP)

Use cases

• Education: teach data skills without wrangling messy files
• Prototypes: build flows without waiting for real data
• Presentations: show data-driven insights with zero friction
• AI testing: give assistants something meaningful to work with

Troubleshooting

• Not seeing data? Try refreshing or reloading the node
• Need updates? Some datasets refresh periodically; check the node config
• Want more? Suggest new datasets through the Feedback option in the app

With the Datasets node, your flow starts with data — fast, free, and ready to explore.
