INSEE Dataset Description: Title, Update Date and Coverage (Melodi)

insee/dataset-info

Describes one INSEE dataset by id (from insee/dataset-list): title and subtitle in French and English, abstract, periodicity, the first and last period covered, the last update date (modified, which the Licence Ouverte asks you to state), the number of series and observations, and the dimensions in order. About 9 KB. An id INSEE does not hold returns an empty answer, which arrives as a provider error rather than a validation error. Source: Insee, Licence Ouverte 2.0; figures unaltered; served by Eden Engine, not an official INSEE product.
