issues

timeset. Optionally, the issue(s) of the data to fetch. See the "Data Versioning" section for details.

lag

integer. Optionally, the lag of the issues to fetch. See the "Data Versioning" section for details.

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.
