What it does

This MPP endpoint provides on-demand access to key US economic indicators sourced from Alpha Vantage. Supported indicators include REAL_GDP, REAL_GDP_PER_CAPITA, TREASURY_YIELD, FEDERAL_FUNDS_RATE, CPI, INFLATION, RETAIL_SALES, DURABLES, UNEMPLOYMENT, and NONFARM_PAYROLL. Data can be requested at various intervals (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annual depending on the indicator) and returned in JSON or CSV format. For TREASURY_YIELD, a maturity parameter allows selection among 3-month, 2-year, 5-year, 7-year, 10-year, and 30-year maturities.

The endpoint is part of a broader Alpha Vantage service suite hosted on the Locus MPP gateway, which also exposes stock time series, forex, crypto, commodities, technical indicators, fundamentals, and news sentiment — each as a separate pay-per-call endpoint. Payment is settled via the Tempo method (pathUSD on Tempo L2) at 8,000 base units per call. Assuming pathUSD uses 6 decimals, this works out to $0.008 (less than one cent) per request.

The endpoint accepts POST requests with a JSON body. The only required field is `indicator` (a string matching one of the supported indicator functions). Optional fields include `interval`, `maturity` (TREASURY_YIELD only), and `datatype`. The OpenAPI 3.1.0 schema is fully documented. Note that the probe returned 404 on HEAD/GET — this is expected since the endpoint only accepts POST. Full API reference is available at Alpha Vantage's documentation site.

Use cases

  • —Retrieving historical US GDP or CPI data for macroeconomic analysis
  • —Monitoring treasury yield curves across multiple maturities
  • —Building automated dashboards tracking unemployment and nonfarm payroll releases
  • —Feeding inflation and retail sales data into quantitative models
  • —Agent-driven economic research without API key management

Fit

Best for

  • —AI agents needing on-demand US macroeconomic data without subscription commitments
  • —Quantitative analysts who want pay-per-call access to economic indicators
  • —Developers building financial dashboards that include macro data
  • —Automated workflows that need CPI, GDP, or unemployment figures programmatically

Not for

  • —High-frequency trading requiring sub-second latency on economic releases
  • —Non-US economic indicators or country-specific macro data outside Alpha Vantage's coverage
  • —Bulk historical data downloads where a flat-rate subscription would be cheaper

Full OpenAPI schema with detailed request parameters and payment info is available. However, the probe did not capture a live 402 challenge (endpoint only accepts POST, probe tried HEAD/GET), no response examples are documented, and crawled pages all returned 404 JSON errors. Price is inferrable but currency decimals are assumed.

Warnings

  • —Probe returned 404 on HEAD and GET — endpoint is POST-only; liveness not confirmed via 402 challenge
  • —No response schema or example response is provided in the OpenAPI spec
  • —Currency address 0x20c000000000000000000000b9537d11c60e8b50 assumed to be pathUSD with 6 decimals; price of ~$0.008 per call is inferred, not confirmed
  • —No crawled documentation pages returned useful content; all returned 'endpoint does not exist' errors
