Unicef Tools (3)
list_dataflows
Browse or keyword-search UNICEF's datasets (dataflows). UNICEF Data covers child health, nutrition, education, child protection, child mortality, child poverty, immunization, water/sanitation/hygiene (WASH) and the child-related SDGs. Each result has an `id` (the dataflowId you pass to dataflow_str…
dataflow_structure
Get the structure (Data Structure Definition) of one UNICEF dataset: its ordered dimensions and, for each, the valid codes (e.g. countries, indicators, sex, age, wealth quintile). Use this to learn how to build the dot-separated SDMX `key` for get_data. The key has one position per dimension, in `d…
get_data
Pull observations from a UNICEF dataset. `key` is a dot-separated SDMX dimension filter, one position per dimension in the order given by dataflow_structure; leave a position empty to wildcard it. Call dataflow_structure first to learn the dimension order and valid codes. Example: get_data({ datafl…
