Overview

Version: 0.1.0

The U.S. Department of the Treasury is building a suite of open-source tools to deliver standardized information about federal finances to the public. We are working to centralize publicly available financial data, and this website will include datasets from the Fiscal Service on topics including debt, revenue, spending, interest rates, and savings bonds.

Our API is based on Representational State Transfer, otherwise known as a RESTful API. Our API accepts GET requests, returns JSON responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes. Each endpoint on this site is accessible through unique URLs that respond with data values and metadata from a single database table.
