NBS (China) datasets not updated since 2026-02 (monthly) / 2024 (annual)

Hello,

We ingest several datasets from the NBS provider through the DBnomics API, and they seem to have stopped updating.

Monthly datasets (latest available period: 2026-02)

  • NBS/M_A010801 - PPI for industrial products (same month last year = 100)
  • NBS/M_A010702 - Purchasing price index for industrial producers
  • NBS/M_A010D01 - PPI, mining and washing of coal
  • NBS/M_A010D02 - PPI, extraction of petroleum and natural gas
  • NBS/M_A010D0J - PPI, processing of petroleum, coal and other fuels
  • NBS/M_A010D0K - PPI, raw chemical materials and chemical products
  • NBS/M_A010D0L - PPI, manufacture of medicines

Annual dataset (2025 = NA, latest available year: 2024)

  • NBS/A_A040I - Average wage of employed persons in urban units by sector

NBS has continued to publish its monthly price releases after February 2026, so the gap does not seem to come from the source.

Could you tell us:

  1. Whether the NBS fetcher is currently failing, or whether a change on the NBS side (website or data API) is preventing updates?
  2. If a fix is planned, and roughly when these datasets could be refreshed?
  3. Whether the monthly datasets keep only a rolling window (~13 months) of history, or whether older observations are retained once fetched?

Thank you!

Best regards,
Bruno

Actually I realize that for the yearly datasets, the data is still not available (see picture)
But for monthly data up to October 2026
