Revision & vintage support

BEA estimate rounds

BEA does not expose a true vintage API. NIPA observations carry NoteRef markers identifying advance, second, third, and final estimate rounds.

BEA does not publish a vintage API; estimate-round tags are derived from NoteRef + temporal-proximity heuristics. Treat as approximate.
