📊 TurkStat Turkey Statistics Scraper

🚀 Export Turkey's official TurkStat (TÜİK) statistics in seconds. Indicators, values, periods, regions, and release dates straight from the national statistics office.

🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-29 · 📊 10 fields per record · Hundreds of indicator categories · Bilingual Turkish and English

The TurkStat Turkey Statistics Scraper turns the data.tuik.gov.tr public category endpoint into a clean dataset. It calls the GetKategori service and flattens each indicator into one row with value, period, region, unit, and release date.

Coverage spans every public TurkStat indicator category accessible via the public data portal, in both Turkish and English.

📋 What the TurkStat Turkey Statistics Scraper does

• Calls the public TurkStat GetKategori endpoint for the requested category.
• Flattens each indicator row into a normalized record.
• Supports both Turkish and English responses.
• Surfaces upstream errors as a clean diagnostic row.

💡 Why it matters: TurkStat's bulletin PDFs and Excel files are awkward to ingest at scale. This actor exposes the underlying JSON used by the portal so analysts can pull numbers programmatically.

⚙️ Input

Example 1 - Top-level categories in English:

{"language":"en","maxItems":50}

Example 2 - Specific category:

{"categoryId":23,"language":"tr","maxItems":100}

⚠️ Good to Know: TurkStat's category tree changes when the portal is reorganized. If a category ID returns nothing, fetch the tree by leaving categoryId empty.
