  • ilo_search_indicators Search the ILOSTAT catalogue of ~1,200 indicator dataflows by keywords in the name or id (e.g. "unemployment rate sex age"). All terms must match (AND, case-insensitive), so start with 2–3 English words and drop terms if you get 0 results. Everyday and US wording is resolved to the ILO's own (labor→
  • ilo_get_indicator_metadata Structure of one ILOSTAT dataflow: dimensions (in SDMX key order), their codelists, the time dimension, the source's default selection and the data vintage (last update at the ILO). Use before ilo_get_data to know which filters exist. Does not return statistical values and does not list the codes th

REF_AREA is required, maximum 30 areas per call — for broad panels, split areas into batches and/or pa

This tool exists for t
  • fetch Returns the full document for an id obtained from `search`, as { id, title, text, url, metadata }: `text` is the readable content (Markdown) and `url` the canonical public page to cite.
