Thank you Hanks, seems to work well after some tweaking.

I had an issue, the patch you sent me gave an error when I ran 'context
--make'. The error said:

tex error       > tex error on line 51 in file core-dat.mkxl: Parameters
must be numbered consecutively
[#1]#*[
<to be read again>
    S
<line 3.51>
    \permanent\tolerant\protected\def\setdataset[#1]#*[#S
    #2]#*[#S#3]%
<empty file>
I've inserted the digit you should have used after the #.

I edited line 51 as:
\permanent\tolerant\protected\def\setdataset[#1]#*[#2]#*[#3]%
Instead of your original:
\permanent\tolerant\protected\def\setdataset[#1]#*[#S#2]#*[#S#3]%

And now context --make runs, and the example compiles correctly, however,
not really sure if what I did was the right thing to do.

Thank you so much for your help!

I was using an old LMTX copy, and that was the issue. Thanks to Hans for
pointing that out.

Now I'm trying to expand my solution a little more. Is there any way to
retrieve an element in a dataset by using the key? For example, given an
"authors" dataset, I would like to do something similar to:

%% Given this data structure ...
\setdataset[authors][
  nombre={Andrés Conrado Montoya Acosta},
  bio={This is a bio, it could be two or three paragraphs long},
  email={loremipsum@email.edu.co},
  cvlac={
https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0002125949
},
  orcid={https://orcid.org/0009-0007-0765-4241},
  gscholar={
https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=GpYTTU0AAAAJ&hl=es&authuser=1},
]

%% I want to do something like....
\startGetAuthor[nombre={Andrés Conrado Montoya Acosta}]
    \datasetentry{bio}\par
    email: \mailhref{\datasetentry{email}}
\stopGetAuthor

So, if my name is found in the dataset, get the data for that name. Is
something like that possible?

Thank you for your time.

Weird is relative. Just use what you like most. One could for instance 
use the publication mechanism but you need to set up a bit more (see 
manual for example of usa as database).

Now datasets. It is not hard to add a size query so I added that. Your 
data is missins commas so let's fix that first

\definedataset[autores]

\setdataset[autores]

     ]

There is no need to use userdata as intermediate:

% \startsetups[userdata:idautor]
%   \dontleavehmode
%   \imghref
%     {\externalfigure[cvlac.pdf][logo]}
%     {\datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{vclac}}
%     \quad
%   \imghref
%     {\externalfigure[orcid.pdf][logo]}
%     {\datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{orcid}}
%     \quad
%   \imghref
%     {\externalfigure[gscholar.pdf][logo]}
%     {\datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{nombre}}
%     \quad
%   \datasetvariable{autores}{\recurselevel}{nombre}\par
% \stopsetups

Just loop over the set and call up the variables in the setup:

% \startdocument
%   \dorecurse{\datasetsize{autores}}{
%     \setups[userdata:idautor]
%   }
% \stopdocument

However, i can provide a processor:

% \startsetups[userdata:idautor]
%   \dontleavehmode
%   \imghref
%     {\externalfigure[cvlac.pdf][logo]}
%     {\datasetvariable{autores}{\datasetindex}{vclac}}
%     \quad
%   \imghref
%     {\externalfigure[orcid.pdf][logo]}
%     {\datasetvariable{autores}{\datasetindex}{orcid}}
%     \quad
%   \imghref
%     {\externalfigure[gscholar.pdf][logo]}
%     {\datasetvariable{autores}{\datasetindex}{nombre}}
%     \quad
%   \datasetvariable{autores}{\datasetindex}{nombre}\par
% \stopsetups

As we know what dataset we process:

\startsetups[userdata:idautor]
   \dontleavehmode
   \imghref
     {\externalfigure[cvlac.pdf][logo]}
     {\datasetentry{vclac}}
     \quad
   \imghref
     {\externalfigure[orcid.pdf][logo]}
     {\datasetentry{orcid}}
     \quad
   \imghref
     {\externalfigure[gscholar.pdf][logo]}
     {\datasetentry{nombre}}
     \quad
   \datasetentry{nombre}
   \par
\stopsetups

We then end up with:

\startdocument
   \processdataset[autores][userdata:idautor]
\stopdocument

I'll mail you the patch. Copy it to the right place and remake the format.
