For ease of reporting and to facilitate understanding of the data, the expenditures are categorized by department/agency, expenditure description, organization, statewide program, funding category, expenditure category, and payee. Note that the 12 accounting months begin in July and run sequentially through the 12th period which stays open for both calendar months June and July of the following year. A 13th period closing/adjustment period remains open for a period of time for final entries in preparation of the State's CAFR reporting.

Ask with this source

A prompt for your agent that names this source and how to call it through the crw MCP.

  • Catalogue search

    Use data.nj.gov (data-nj-gov) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Catalogue search" (catalog-search). You want to find a dataset on this portal by keyword and do not know its four-by-four id. Example options: q=taxi, offset=0, order=page_views_total DESC. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "data-nj-gov" and capability "catalog-search". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

  • Dataset metadata

    Use data.nj.gov (data-nj-gov) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Dataset metadata" (dataset). You already hold a dataset id and need its columns, licence or description before querying rows. Example options: id=ts75-sevp. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "data-nj-gov" and capability "dataset". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

  • Dataset inventory

    Use data.nj.gov (data-nj-gov) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Dataset inventory" (datasets). You need to enumerate what this portal publishes, or page through its newest datasets. Example options: offset=0, order=createdAt, category=Transportation. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "data-nj-gov" and capability "datasets". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

  • Row count

    Use data.nj.gov (data-nj-gov) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Row count" (row-count). You need to know how large a dataset is before downloading it, or want a cheap liveness check. Example options: id=ts75-sevp. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "data-nj-gov" and capability "row-count". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>
