get_unemployment

Downloads and cleans data from IBGE's Continuous PNAD via SIDRA API.

It offers simplified access to Brazilian macroeconomic and financial indicators selected from official sources, such as the 'IBGE' (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) via the 'SIDRA' API and the 'Central Bank of Brazil' via the 'SGS' API. It allows users to quickly retrieve and visualize data series such as the unemployment rate and the Selic interest rate. This package was developed for data access and visualization purposes, without generating forecasts or statistical results. For more information, see the official APIs: <https://sidra.ibge.gov.br/> and <https://dadosabertos.bcb.gov.br/dataset/>.
