World Bank Indicator Normalizer
Fetch clean, analysis-ready development indicators from the World Bank Open Data API. The Actor converts raw API observations into consistent country-year records with ISO codes, normalized numeric values, deduplication, and a readable summary.
Why use this Actor?
World Bank data is authoritative but raw responses are awkward for downstream workflows. This Actor provides standardized country identifiers, stable field names, duplicate removal, bounded pagination, and both machine-readable and human-readable output.
Inputs
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
indicator | Yes | World Bank code such as SP.POP.TOTL, NY.GDP.MKTP.CD, or SI.POV.DDAY |
countries | No | Comma-separated ISO2/ISO3 codes, e.g. GBR,USA,DEU; blank means all countries |
startYear | No | First year, default 2020 |
endYear | No | Last year, default 2023 |
maxResults | No | Maximum observations, default 100, maximum 5000 |
Example input
{"indicator":"SP.POP.TOTL","countries":"GBR,USA,DEU","startYear":2019,"endYear":2023,"maxResults":100}
Output
Each dataset record includes indicatorCode, indicatorName, country, countryIso2, countryIso3, year, value, unit, and source. The run also stores a formatted table in OUTPUT, full records in RESULTS, and run metrics in STATS.
Use cases

- Market sizing and country comparison
- ESG and development dashboards
- Recruiting, investment, and policy intelligence
- Reproducible data pipelines without API-key setup
