Description
Returns a data frame with the requested data, downloaded through the OECD's API.
Usage
get_dataset( dataset, filter = NULL, start_time = NULL, end_time = NULL, pre_formatted = FALSE, ...)Arguments
dataset | A string with the code for the desired data set |
filter | A list of character vectors specifying filters to be applied to each dimension of the dataset (see |
start_time | Starting time for data. If left blank, no time filter is applied (i.e. all observations since the earliest available observation are downloaded). If end_time is specified, a |
end_time | End time for data. |
pre_formatted | boolean. Set to TRUE if filter to be applied is already formatted (e.g. if copied from the OECD's SDMX generator (see example below)). |
