Deutsche Bundesbank SDMX Web Service
Official statistics web service of the Deutsche Bundesbank, providing macroeconomic and financial time series, including exchange rates, prices, and other economic indicators, via an SDMX REST interface. It covers German national data and is maintained by the Bundesbank as part of its statistics publication activity. Data can be retrieved in SDMX-JSON format using the format=sdmx_json query parameter (note the underscore, as alternative spellings return errors). The OpenAPI specification and REST base URL serve as the durable technical reference, since some documentation subpages on the Bundesbank website are subject to change due to content management system routing.Official statistics API of the Deutsche Bundesbank: exchange rates and macroeconomic/financial time series over SDMX REST. Note the JSON format parameter is format=sdmx_json (underscore — sdmx-json and sdmxjson both return 406). Use the OpenAPI spec and REST base URL as the durable reference; some bundesbank.de help subpages 404 due to CMS routing churn.
