Econdb API
Overview
Econdb provides free access to global macroeconomic data including GDP, inflation, unemployment, and hundreds of other economic indicators from official sources like central banks and statistical agencies. No API key is required, making it very easy to get started with economic data in your projects. It is a great resource for students, researchers, and developers building economic dashboards or data visualizations.
Beginner Tip
Use the /series endpoint with a ticker like "RGDP_USA" to fetch a specific indicator — you can find available tickers by browsing the Econdb website first. Combine multiple tickers in one request with the "tickers" parameter to save API calls.
