Statistics

SCB API

SCB is the source many Swedish dashboards eventually need. Apiverket makes that data easier to test and combine with other public sources.

Use Swedish official statistics without starting with table IDs, hand-built POST bodies and one integration per statistics area.

What can you fetch?

  • Population by municipality
  • Prices and inflation
  • Labor market statistics
  • Income, housing and public finance
  • GDP, trade and migration

What can you build?

  • Municipality dashboards
  • Market research and enrichment
  • Regional analysis
  • AI assistants that need official Swedish statistics

Common problems with the original source

  • Raw SCB requests often require table discovery first.
  • Different statistics areas need different parameter sets.
  • Large tables can be awkward to shape for app use.

How Apiverket makes it easier

  • Use readable endpoints for common statistics.
  • Get consistent JSON responses.
  • Combine SCB with company, weather, traffic and municipal data through the same API key.

Example request

/v1/population/0180/v1/prices/cpi/v1/labor/employment
curl
curl "https://apiverket.se/v1/population/0180" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_test_demo"
Freshness: Freshness follows the upstream SCB publication schedule and Apiverket cache settings for each endpoint.
Source: Apiverket is independent from SCB. Always cite SCB as the official data source where the data is shown. Statistiska centralbyrån.
