Trading Economics + clariBI
Connect Trading Economics with your API key, choose the indicators and country to track, and get macroeconomic history sitting next to the revenue and demand it drives.
Native Trading Economics data-source connector.
Paste your Trading Economics key, pick the indicators and country to track, and clariBI syncs their history into preprocessed datasets and auto-generated dashboards, right next to your other tools.
What is Trading Economics?
Trading Economics provides macroeconomic and market indicators for countries worldwide, covering GDP, inflation, unemployment, interest rates and thousands more historical series through one REST API.
clariBI reads Trading Economics through its historical API using your own key: the time series of the indicators you choose, for the country you set. You enter the indicator names (for example gdp or inflation rate), and the connector reads the series read-only. The key is Fernet-encrypted at rest.

Sync, then get dashboards

What gets synced
clariBI pulls the historical series of the indicators you select through the Trading Economics REST API, lands it as a preprocessed dataset, and refreshes it on your schedule. Access is read-only.
For each selected indicator, clariBI syncs the historical value for the country you choose, then builds an insights dashboard you can query, extend, or pull into reports.
clariBI only ever reads. It never changes anything in your Trading Economics account.
Cross-source questions Trading Economics makes possible

Trading Economics × Pricing
"Did local inflation outpace our price increases?"
Planner: read the inflation indicator for the country, join to your average selling price by period, and report the real-terms gap.
