You can use the External Data extension for MediaWiki. This will pull data as CSV, GFF, JSON or XML, or LDAP server or database, which can then be displayed on the page.


The External Data extension allows MediaWiki pages to retrieve, filter, and format structured data from one or more sources. These sources can include external URLs, regular wiki pages, uploaded files, files on the local server, databases or LDAP directories.


For more information, see the extension page:
