    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_full_series" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Returns the whole history of one indicator for one country or region, up to 2500 values per call, for people signed in to EconDash with full data access; other signed-in accounts get as many values as get_indicator_series. Needs sign-in to EconDash. Without years: the history up to the latest observed value, with the nearest projection in next_projection. With start_year and/or end_year: the values in that range, the latest ones and truncated true when it holds more. Same fields as get_indicator_series. Country is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_indicator_series" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Returns values of one indicator for one country or region. A call returns at most 30 annual, 40 quarterly, 120 monthly, 52 weekly, 250 daily values (about 30 years of annual data, 10 years of quarterly or monthly, one year of weekly or daily). Without years: the latest observed values. With start_year and/or end_year: the values in that range; when the range holds more, the latest ones are returned and truncated is true. With year: one value for that year (the last period of that year for monthly or quarterly data). Includes the unit, source, licence, the range of periods with data and a link to the EconDash chart page that shows the full history. Projections such as IMF forecasts are labelled; without end_year or year, the series stops at the latest observed value and the nearest projection comes in a separate next_projection field. Country is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code.
