Source and limitations

The Actor reads “Consumer Price Index (CPI), 2024 As Base Year, Monthly,” resource M213751, directly from the official SingStat developer API. Singapore Data is an independent publisher and is not affiliated with or endorsed by SingStat or the Singapore Government.

CPI is a statistical index, not the price of an individual product and not a personal cost-of-living guarantee. Base-year rebasing, revisions, weights, and official definitions matter when comparing series. Verify material financial or policy decisions against the official table notes.

The Actor makes one bounded metadata request and one request per selected series. It uses direct HTTP, finite retries, no browser, no proxy, and no paid external API.

Empty results and errors

Unknown series selections produce no_results when none match. Access rejection, exhausted retries, and malformed official rows fail honestly. No historical table or fabricated value is substituted silently.
