Norges Bank

Retrieve raw exchange-rate and generic-rate SDMX JSON from the public Norges Bank API.

Norges Bank is Norway's central bank. This integration reads public statistics from https://data.norges-bank.no/api/data and does not require authentication.

Tools

• get_exchange_rates: fetch raw SDMX JSON for selected base currencies against NOK spot exchange rates.
• get_generic_rates: fetch raw SDMX JSON for Norwegian treasury bill and government bond generic interest rates.

Authentication

No authentication is required. The package uses addNone() and calls the public Norges Bank statistics API directly.

Exchange Rates

get_exchange_rates builds requests against the EXR dataset:

EXR/{frequency}.{baseCurrencies+}.NOK.SP

Inputs:

• frequency: B, M, or A.
• baseCurrencies: one or more supported base-currency codes.
• startPeriod and endPeriod: use YYYY-MM-DD for business-day data, YYYY-MM for monthly data, and YYYY for annual data.
• locale: optional, defaults to en.

The quote currency is fixed to NOK and the tenor is fixed to SP to match the Norges Bank exchange-rate query form.

Generic Rates

get_generic_rates builds requests against the GOVT_GENERIC_RATES dataset:

GOVT_GENERIC_RATES/{frequency}.{tenors+}.{instrumentTypes+}.

Inputs:

• frequency: B, M, or A.
• tenors: 3M, 6M, 12M, 3Y, 5Y, 7Y, or 10Y.
• instrumentTypes: TBIL or GBON.
• startPeriod and endPeriod: use YYYY-MM-DD for business-day data, YYYY-MM for monthly data, and YYYY for annual data.
• locale: optional, defaults to en.

Supported combinations are validated before calling the API:

• TBIL: 3M, 6M, 12M.
• GBON: 3Y, 5Y, 7Y, 10Y.

Output

Both tools return the raw SDMX JSON payload from Norges Bank with its meta and data objects unchanged. The tools do not normalize series keys, dimensions, or observations into a custom output shape.
