How do I find the right indicator or dataset code?
How do I find the right indicator or dataset code?
For the World Bank, browse the indicator codes under a topic, then read the
indicator’s definition to confirm what it measures before pulling values.
For Eurostat, read the dataset’s description and the code lists for its
dimensions to build the filter. The agent can do both steps itself from a
plain-language request.
