Get started

The Trading Economics Application Programming Interface (API) provides direct access to 300.000 economic indicators, exchange rates, stock market indexes, government bond yields, commodity prices and company financials. You can also subscribe to quotes from our markets and streaming updates from our economic calendar and earnings releases calendar.

We offer two distinct clients that serve as convenient gateways to interact with our API: one in Python and the other in Node.js. However, you can interact with our API in different programming languages and we provide samples for some in our open source github repository.
