Input

{
  "countries": ["USA", "GBR", "JPN"],
  "indicatorCode": "WHOSIS_000001",
  "mostRecentYears": 5
}

Field	Type	Description
`countries`	array of strings (required)	One or more ISO 3-letter country codes, e.g. `"USA"`, `"GBR"`, `"JPN"`, `"IND"`.
`indicatorCode`	string (required)	A WHO GHO indicator code. Common ones: `WHOSIS_000001` (life expectancy at birth), `WHOSIS_000002` (healthy life expectancy), `WHS4_100` (measles immunization coverage %), `SA_0000001688` (alcohol consumption per capita), `GHED_CHEGDP_SHA2011` (health spending % of GDP). Browse the full catalog at ghoapi.azureedge.net/api/Indicator.
`mostRecentYears`	number	How many of the most recent distinct years (per country) to return. Indicators broken down by sex/age/etc return multiple rows per year. Default `5`, max `20`.

Output

One record per country/year/dimension-breakdown:

{
  "countryCode": "USA",
  "indicatorCode": "WHOSIS_000001",
  "year": 2021,
  "value": 76.373681040,
  "displayValue": "76.4 [76.3-76.5]",
  "dimension1": "SEX_BTSX",
  "dimension1Type": "SEX",
  "dimension2": null,
  "dimension2Type": null
}

Many indicators are broken down by sex (SEX_BTSX = both sexes, SEX_MLE, SEX_FMLE) or other dimensions — each breakdown for a given year is returned as its own row rather than picking one arbitrarily. displayValue includes WHO's own confidence interval text where available; value is the plain number for calculations.

An unrecognized indicator code returns a clear error; an unrecognized country code returns zero rows for that indicator (a real "no data" outcome, since WHO's API doesn't distinguish the two cases itself).

How it works

Direct calls to the official WHO GHO OData API — no proxy, no key, no scraping. WHO data is freely available for reuse per WHO's open data terms.

Pricing note

Billed per lookup (one run), not per value returned — one charge whether you request 1 country/1 year or 20 countries/20 years.
