U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data

U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data is a free, public source for federal government financial data published by the Bureau of the Fiscal Service. Its REST API serves machine-readable government reports and economic indicators - the national debt, average interest rates on Treasury securities, daily and monthly Treasury statements of federal revenue and spending, Treasury reporting rates of exchange, and Treasury securities auctions - as JSON, CSV, or XML. Every dataset endpoint responds from a single database table and supports field selection, filtering, sorting, and pagination. No registration, API key, or authentication is required, and the data is in the public domain.

agent aware

More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data the way a machine reads it — 11 machine-readable artifacts across 6 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data scores 28.9/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 39/100 (agent aware). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 6

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data Daily Treasury Statement API

Daily federal cash and debt operations.

U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data Debt API

National debt outstanding and interest expense on the debt.

U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data Exchange Rates API

Treasury reporting rates of exchange for foreign currencies.

U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data Interest Rates API

Average interest rates on U.S. Treasury securities.

U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data Monthly Treasury Statement API

Monthly federal receipts, outlays, and the budget deficit.

U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data Securities API

Treasury securities auction results.

Open Collections 1

Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.

Open, tool-agnostic API collections (OpenAPI-derived and Bruno).

Pricing Plans 1

Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.

Published pricing tiers and plan structures.

Rate Limits 1

Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

Documented rate limits and quota policies.

FinOps 1

Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

Cost, billing, and metering signals for API financial operations.

Agentic Access 1

An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.

Recommended x-agentic-access execution contracts for AI agents.
