Schema
| Column | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| date | timestamp | Observation date from the provider's time series. Daily cubes (P1D_L) use calendar dates; monthly cubes (P1M) report YYYY-MM, mapped to the first day of the month. |
| series_id | string | Stable machine identifier: snake_case slug of the provider's own dimension codes, in dimension order (e.g. chf_10j). |
| series_label | string | Human-readable series name built only from the provider's own dimension labels (the /dimensions endpoint of the SNB data portal), joined with ' — ', e.g. 'CHF Swiss Confederation bond issues — 10 years'. |
| unit | string | Canonical unit mapped from the provider's metadata.unit string: 'In percent' -> %, 'In CHF millions' -> CHF millions, 'Rates at 11 am. in CHF' -> CHF per foreign currency unit. Note: the SNB's metadata declares 'In percent' for every snbgwdzid series, even though the 'Discount in basis points' label implies basis points and 'Threshold factor' is unitless — that is the provider's own metadata. |
| value | float | Observed value as a number. Observations the provider reports as null are dropped. |
| d0 | string | Provider dimension code for 'Bond categories' (the SNB data portal dimension name). The matching human-readable label is part of series_label. |
| d1 | string | Provider dimension code for 'Maturity' (the SNB data portal dimension name). The matching human-readable label is part of series_label. |
