Search the TÜİK statistical dataset catalogue by keyword, theme and publication state
Turns a subject into the dataset code needed to pull observations: that code is id, and only the full form with its version suffix resolves anywhere else. Omit query to list the whole catalogue and narrow from there. Turkish and English share the ids but translate every label, so spell category and sub_category in the language you asked for. To tell which datasets can actually be pulled, read updated_at rather than is_downloadable: is_downloadable mirrors the catalogue's own flag and a few datasets it marks false do serve their observations, while an empty updated_at is what means the observation endpoints answer 412.
access-token string requiredtimeout integer — Max scrapping execution timeout (in seconds) (default: 300; min: 20; max: 1500)count integer required — Number of datasets to return (min: 1)query string nullable — Text matched against the dataset name, description and code (examples: "ihracat", "unemployment", "DF_ADNKS"; minLength: 1)category string nullable — Top-level statistical theme, as returned in the category field (examples: "Uluslararası Ticaret", "International Trade"; minLength: 1)sub_category string nullable — Any level below the theme, as returned in sub_categories (examples: "Dış Ticaret Endeksleri", "İşgücü İstatistikleri"; minLength: 1)name_starts_with string nullable — Keep only datasets whose name begins with this text, matched case-insensitively and with the Turkish dotted/dotless i folded so 'i' and 'İ' match the same names (examples: "A", "İş"; minLength: 1)is_downloadable boolean nullable — Keep only datasets the catalogue marks as downloadable, or only those it does notlang string — Language of names, descriptions and categories (default: "tr"; one of: "tr", "en")@type string (default: "TuikDataset")id string requiredname string requiredversion string nullabledescription string nullableperiod string nullableupdated_at string nullableis_downloadable boolean (default: false)category string nullablesub_categories array (default: [])footnotes array (default: [])422 — The request body did not validate Check the fields against this schema. A URN with the wrong prefix is the most common cause.408 — The request ran past its time limit Raise `timeout` in the request body, up to the maximum this endpoint documents. Lowering `count` or turning off the `with_*` flags also helps, because less work finishes sooner.412 — The entity was not found, or a precondition failed Retrying will not help: either the entity does not exist, or the input points at a different one.429 — Too many requests: a rate limit or a usage window is exhausted When the response carries an X-Retry-After header, wait that many seconds and retry: the same number is in the body as `detail.retry_after`, and the limit clears once that window passes. The message in the body names the limit that was hit.500 — Something broke on our side Retrying will not help. If it keeps happening, send us the X-Request-ID from the response headers.529 — Rate limit reached, or the endpoint is overloaded Wait at least 30 seconds, then retry.X-Error — Error message text (present only on error)X-Request-ID — Unique request identifierX-Execution-Time — Execution time in secondsX-Result-Count — How many records the body carries. 0 means an empty result, which is a normal answer and not by itself an error. A non-zero count can come back together with X-Error when the failure happened partway through — read this header and X-Error independently.X-Total-Available-Results — How many records exist for this query, when the endpoint can say. On a `dry_run` request this is the answer and the body is empty. It saturates: the endpoint's documented maximum means 'at least that many', any smaller number is exact.X-Warning — Present when the request body carried keys this endpoint does not document. They were ignored, so any filter you meant to apply through them did not apply. Check the spelling against this schema and retry.X-Retry-After — Seconds to wait before retrying. Present only on 429.
