Run a SPARQL query against Wikidata and get flat rows — one row per result, with the columns named by the variables you selected. Free public endpoint, no key.
This is the generalist: instead of a fixed schema, it returns whatever your query asked for.
What you get
Whatever variables your SELECT names. Each cell is unwrapped from SPARQL's {type, value} form, so
?countryLabel becomes a countryLabel field. Plus id and source.
Sample output
Limitations
- You must write correct SPARQL, and the query is sent as-is. An invalid query returns a 400 from Wikidata, surfaced as an error rather than a result.
- Complex property paths time out.
wdt:P31/wdt:P279*across a large class can exceed Wikidata's query budget; the Actor allows 120 seconds, but a genuinely expensive query will still fail. Narrow it withVALUES,LIMITor a specific class. - Cells are strings, because SPARQL returns everything as a literal or a URI —
popabove is"68605616", not a number. - Use
SERVICE wikibase:labelto get readable labels; without it you get bare QIDs. - Wikidata is community-edited and changes; and its endpoint is a shared public resource, so run
infrequently and with
LIMIT.
Pricing
Pay per result.
Fields
| Field | Type | What it holds |
|---|---|---|
id | string | Stable row id, prefixed sparql: and taken from the first projected variable. |
source | string | Always wikidata-sparql, so rows from several runs can be told apart. |
