World Bank Scraper

Pulls World Bank development indicators for any set of countries and years. No login, no proxy, no browser.

Input

Field	Type	Notes
`countries`	array	ISO codes, or `all`. Default Brazil, India, Nigeria.
`indicators`	array	Indicator codes. Default population, GDP per capita, life expectancy.
`fromYear` / `toYear`	integer	Year range. Default `2015`–`2024`.
`skipEmptyYears`	boolean	Drop unpublished observations. Default `true`.

Output

One row per country, indicator and year: country, countryIso2, countryIso3, indicator, indicatorCode, year, value, unit, observationStatus, decimals, lastUpdated.

Notes

An invalid indicator code returns HTTP 200 with an error object, not a 4xx. A client that only checks the status treats the error as data and produces zero rows with no explanation; this Actor reads the body and logs what the API objected to.
The response is a two-element array: a pagination header followed by the rows. The row list is body[1], and on an error response there is no body[1] at all.
Recent years are usually empty. Most indicators lag two to three years, so a range ending this year returns nulls at the top — dropped by default, keepable by turning skipEmptyYears off if you want the gaps visible.
countryiso3code is an empty string for aggregates like "World" or "Sub-Saharan Africa"; that becomes null rather than "".
Several countries go in one request via BRA;IND;NGA, so the run cost is one request per indicator, not per country.
