Irish Statistical Table Structure: Dimensions, Units and Update Dates (CSO Ireland)

csopxstat/read-metadata

The structure of one Central Statistics Office Ireland statistical table, looked up by table code (for example CPM01 for the Consumer Price Index), without its data cells: the dimensions and their sizes, every statistic with its unit, every period code, the last-update time, the revision reason and the CSO contact. The `value` list is empty. Use it to see what a table holds and how large it is before fetching the whole table. English labels. Central Statistics Office Ireland data, passed through unmodified and served by Eden Engine; not an official CSO product.
