European Central Bank — PIS dataflow
The PIS dataflow is an official time series dataset published via the European Central Bank Data Portal, covering price-related economic indicators. It is distributed through an SDMX 2.1 REST endpoint that supports multiple output formats, including XML (SDMX-ML), CSV (via the csvdata parameter), and JSON (via the jsondata parameter). Users can filter results by key-path and time period, enabling flexible retrieval of specific series. The dataset provides free, unauthenticated access and is intended for statistical, economic, and financial analysis at the European level, maintained by the European Central Bank.Official time series from the European Central Bank Data Portal, published as the PIS dataflow over SDMX 2.1 REST. One endpoint serves XML (SDMX-ML), CSV (?format=csvdata) and JSON (?format=jsondata), with key-path and period filters.
