KAPSARC Energy Data Scraper

🚀 Export KAPSARC energy datasets in seconds. Production, consumption, trade flows, and price indicators from KAPSARC public catalog.

🕒 Last updated: 2026-06-05 . 📊 6 fields per record . Public API . Real-time

The KAPSARC Energy Data Scraper turns the datasource.kapsarc.org public REST endpoint into a clean, structured dataset.

📋 What the KAPSARC Energy Data Scraper does

• Calls https://datasource.kapsarc.org/api/records/1.0/search with the dataset you supply.
• Flattens fields per record into a clean row.
• Supports text query, refine filters, and sort.
• Surfaces upstream errors as a clean error record.

💡 Why it matters. The source returns raw API payloads that most data tools cannot ingest directly. This actor normalizes everything into a flat row format ready for analysis.
