Data Versioning

Several endpoints support retrieving historical versions of the data. The following parameters control this and are mutually exclusive (only one can be provided at a time).

  • as_of: (Date) Retrieve the data as it was on this date.

  • issues: timeset Retrieve data from a specific issue date or range of dates.

  • lag: (integer) Retrieve data with a specific lag from its issue date.

If none of these is specified, the most recent version of the data is returned.

See vignette("versioned-data") for details and more ways to specify versioned data.
