[ckan-dev] accessing dataset revision history

Thu Apr 11 17:16:09 UTC 2013

Victor,

Thanks for the pointers to the API.

I was able to surmise that http://datahub.io/api/3/action/package_revision_list?id=klappstuhlclub puts me where I want to be, based on:

http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/api.html#get-able-api-functions

Regards,
Tim

With these you should be able to get what you want.
