Commitments and disbursements on IATI aid activities, with dates and counterparties.
Tool description as the model sees it
AUTHORITATIVE for the money actually moved on an aid project — PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for “how much has been disbursed on this aid activity”, “commitments vs disbursements for UK aid in Kenya”. Returns the individual financial transactions published to IATI: type (commitment, disbursement, expenditure, incoming funds), date, value and currency, plus the provider and receiver organisations. This is the difference between what was promised and what was paid. Requires an API key (free at https://developer.iatistandard.org/).
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
iatiIdentifier | string | no | Restrict to one activity by its IATI identifier, e.g. “GB-GOV-1-300123”. |
query | string | no | Apache Solr query over the transaction index, used when you are not filtering by a single activity — e.g. “transaction_type_code:3 AND recipient_country_code:KE” (3 = disbursement). Default ”:”. |
transactionType | string | no | IATI transaction type code: “1” incoming funds, “2” outgoing commitment, “3” disbursement, “4” expenditure, “11” incoming commitment. ANDed onto the query. |
limit | number | no | Maximum transactions to return, 1-500. Default 50. |
offset | number | no | Zero-based offset into the result set, for paging. Default 0. |
