Versions
publicdata.au keeps a new version each time the publisher changes the source file, and lists them all at https://publicdata.au/d/abs-lga-2025/versions.json. This repository tags each version it holds as v<date>, so load_dataset("National-Digital/abs-lga-2025", revision="v2026-07-20") always returns these rows.
Query it without downloading
The publicdata.au query API filters and totals the newest version of this dataset and needs no key:
