Hi Alessando,

Have you tried to use the *package_search *function? I do not know how
*package_list* works and I'm not pretty sure if this function returns
private datasets, but I'm sure that *package_search* will return both:
private and public dataset. However, this function will not return any
non-searchable datasets (even if they belongs to an organization). So if
you want to retrieve the datasets a user can access within an organization,
you will have to ue the *organization_show* function.

Let me know if you have more doubts! ;)
