# Passthrough for any Valet series

`GET /api/v1/boc/series/{seriesCode}`

Fetch observations for any Bank of Canada Valet series by code. Accepts any series published at `/observations/<seriesCode>/json`. To request multiple codes in one call, comma-separate them (practical Valet limit is about 10 to 15 codes per request).

See `/boc/catalog` for recommended codes. Time-window parameters mirror the Valet API.

## Path parameters

- `seriesCode` string, required — Valet series code, optionally comma-separated for multiple series.

## Query parameters

- `recent` integer, nullable — Return the last N observations.
- `recent_weeks` integer, nullable — Return observations for the last N weeks.
- `recent_months` integer, nullable — Return observations for the last N months.
- `recent_years` integer, nullable — Return observations for the last N years.
- `start_date` string, nullable — Start date (YYYY-MM-DD).
- `end_date` string, nullable — End date (YYYY-MM-DD). Defaults to today.

## Response `200`

Observation rows for the requested series with metadata.

- EnvelopeBocSeriesData
  - `data` BocSeriesData, required — Generic response for `/boc/series/{seriesCode}` passthrough.
    - `seriesDetail` object, required — Map of series code to metadata (label, frequency, unit).
    - `count` integer, required — Number of observations in this response.
    - `observations` BocObservation[], required — Array of observations, each with `d` plus one float per series code.
      - `d` string, nullable — Observation date (YYYY-MM-DD).
  - `meta` SugraMeta, required — Metadata attached to every /api/v1/* response envelope.
    - `endpoint` string, required — Requested endpoint path.
    - `data_time` string, required — ISO 8601 UTC timestamp of the source data, not of the request.
    - `response_time` string, required — ISO 8601 UTC timestamp when this response was produced.
    - `provider` string, required — API name and version.
    - `source` string, nullable — Identifier of the primary upstream source used for this response.
    - `attribution` string, nullable — Human-readable attribution mandated by an upstream source (e.g. a securities regulator or self-regulatory organization). Present only on responses whose source requires the owner and source to be clearly identified. Do not remove or alter it when using the response.
    - `fallback_used` boolean, nullable — True when the primary source failed and a fallback produced the data.
    - `fallback_chain` string[], nullable — Ordered list of sources attempted, in the order they were tried.
    - `cached` boolean, nullable — True when this response was served from the internal cache.
    - `stale` boolean, nullable — True when the cached response was returned after the upstream rate-limited or errored. Clients can use this to detect degraded data.

## Other responses

- `401` — Missing or invalid `x-api-key` header.
- `422` — Validation Error
- `429` — Daily rate limit exceeded. Check `X-RateLimit-Reset` for the next window.
- `503` — Upstream source is temporarily unavailable. Retry after a short delay.
