Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Bundesbank De Tools (3)
list_dataflows
List the available Bundesbank statistics dataflows (each is a series collection you can query with get_series). Returns SDMX 2.1 structure XML listing every dataflow id + name under agency BBK. Well-known flows: BBEX3 (exchange rates), BBK01 (legacy single time series), BBSIS (interest rates), BBBK…
dataflow_structure
Get the data structure definition (DSD) for a dataflow: its dimensions and the valid codes for each, which you need to build a series key for get_series. Returns SDMX 2.1 structure XML. The DSD id differs from the dataflow id (e.g. dataflow BBEX3 uses DSD "BBK_ERX"). Pass the dataflow id (flowRef)…
get_series
Pull observations for a Bundesbank series as SDMX-JSON. flowRef is the dataflow id (e.g. "BBEX3"); key is a dot-separated SDMX dimension filter in key order (e.g. "D.USD.EUR.BB.AC.000" = daily USD/EUR reference rate). Use dataflow_structure to discover the dimensions/codes for a flow. Leave a dimen…
