Official Statistics Extractor: Sweden, Finland (PxWeb)
Pricing
from $0.35 / 1,000 records
Turn official statistics tables from Statistics Sweden (SCB), Statistics Finland and other PxWeb-based offices into a labeled table: one row per figure, e.g. population by region, sex and year. Give a table path, or browse the subject tree to find tables. Latest period by default. Pay per row.
The REST API root of ANY PxWeb statistical service. Examples: https://api.scb.se/OV0104/v1/doris/en/ssd (Statistics Sweden) or https://pxdata.stat.fi/PxWeb/api/v1/en/StatFin (Statistics Finland). Also works with Norway, Iceland, Greenland and other PxWeb / PC-Axis dissemination platforms. No trailing slash needed.
The path, relative to the API root, to a leaf .px table to query, e.g. BE/BE0101/BE0101A/BefolkningNy (SCB Sweden population) or synt/12dj.px (StatFi births). Leave EMPTY (or point at a navigation level like BE) to DISCOVER: the actor lists the subject-tree nodes there so you can find tables. When it points at a leaf table the actor GETs its metadata and queries it.
Optional explicit selection of which dimension values to fetch. Two forms: a simple mapping {"Region": ["00"], "Kon": ["1", "2"], "Tid": ["2023"]}, or the native PxWeb array [{"code": "Region", "selection": {"filter": "item", "values": ["00"]}}]. Leave EMPTY to auto-select: all values of small mandatory dimensions, the last N periods of the time dimension, and aggregate over eliminable dimensions (keeps the cell count small and valid on any table).
When auto-selecting (no explicit query above), how many of the most recent time periods to fetch per series. Default 1 (the latest). Ignored when you supply an explicit query.
Discovery only (when the path points at a navigation level, not a leaf table). When ON, walk the navigation levels depth-first (bounded by Max depth) and emit every leaf .px table found, each with its full path. When OFF, list only the immediate child nodes.
Discovery recursion depth ceiling (only used with "Recurse"). Default 3. Higher values walk deeper subject trees but cost more navigation requests.
Optional cap on the number of rows emitted (cells in data mode, nodes/tables in discovery mode). Each emitted row is one billable record. Leave empty to emit everything the query returns.
Optional bearer token for gated PxWeb services (sent as Authorization: Bearer ***). Not required for public dissemination services (SCB, StatFi…). Never logged.
