Description

I have not been able to set up Drill to connect to a JSON file at url:
https://data.humdata.org/api/3/action/current_package_list_with_resources?limit=10000

I can connect to files locally.

It is not clear to me from the documentation whether or not this feature exists. If it doesn't, it should.
