Documentation
The official ECMWF CDS guide was read on 22 October 2026. The cdsapi client requires authentication, acceptance of dataset terms and a dataset-specific request. OData examples for the different Copernicus Data Space service were withdrawn; no CDS download was validated.

Programmatic access: examples withdrawn
The Copernicus Data Space examples were withdrawn: they target a different service. Climate Data Store uses Python cdsapi, an account, a token and a dataset-specific request after accepting its terms. Consult the official CDS guide; no dataset-specific download was validated here.
