API - Detailed guidelines - Catalogue API - Metabase
The metabase file includes the structure definition of all available Eurostat datasets via the API i.e. the dimensions used and their related positions in the format "Dataset Code / Dimension / Positions" separated by tabulations.
This list is alphabetically sorted on dataset code then dimension code and finally on position code list order (protocol order).
Example for the "Agricultural Labour Input Statistics: absolute figures (1 000 annual work units)" dataset which is identified by the "aact_ali01" code.
