I guess the url should be as canonical as possible, or stored as such in udata DB at least.
We could also mention it with example in the guides, or give a feedback to the user in the form.
Agree, but maybe a function to clean the url (or return a visible error without the need for the user to click on the previsualisation) could be helpful? The guides are clear, but the form is not helpful IMHO
In order to set up the harvester, one has to put the URL of the "root" of the ods portal, for example https://data.iledefrance.fr, and data.gouv.fr looks for the API endpoint by adding
/api/datasets/1.0/search/?start=0&rows=50&interopmetas=true
right after.But the main page of ods portails is often on some other URL, such as https://data.iledefrance.fr/pages/home-open-data/ or https://data.economie.gouv.fr/pages/accueil/. If the user tries to paste these URLs in data.gouv.fr, they get an error as data.gouv.fr tries to look for the ods API endpoint in the wrong place, for example
https://data.iledefrance.fr/pages/home-open-data/api/datasets/1.0/search/?start=0&rows=50&interopmetas=true
A solution could be to try to look for the API endpoint in the right place, i.e. at the root of the domain and not on some sub pages.
