API and Data Feed options

CEIC API: Our API allows for on-demand access directly to our macroeconomic database, and enables you to perform powerful customised searches and access different data sets upon request. It features:

• Time-points and rich metadata extraction
• XML, JSON, CSV output formats
• Data feed ability – retrieve and compare data time point changes
• Interactive online documentation
• Python, PHP and JavaScript SDKs

Data Feeds: We also offer data feed solutions for clients who need to quickly retrieve large amounts of static data. Access to the data files is through a secured ftp connection where files are updated on a daily basis.

R, EViews, Python: With CEIC modules in R, Python or EViews you can connect directly to CEIC time series database to browse our extensive data collection or quickly retrieve your series of choice. You can refine your queries with the rich search, metadata or time point observation filtering criteria available in all packages.
