This dataset contains all independent assessments and validations of World Bank projects carried out by the Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) in the last 20 years. This data is updated quarterly in addition to the annual update for IEG's Results and Performance of the World Bank Group (RAP).

Note: The data shows the latest evaluation i.e. if a project had multiple evaluations such as a Project Performance Assessment Report (PPAR), only the latest rating is included in the dataset.

JavaScript makes it super simple to fetch from an API endpoint.
fetch('https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00053&resourceId=RS00055&top=100&type=json')
.then(response => {
if (!response.ok) {
throw new Error('');
}
return response.json();
})
.then(data => {
// Do something with the response data
// console.log(data);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('Error:', error);
});
Python for easily work with data.
import requests
url = 'https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00053&resourceId=RS00055&top=100&type=json'
try:
response = requests.get(url)
response.raise_for_status() # Raise an exception for 4XX and 5XX status codes
data = response.json() # Parse the JSON response
print(data) # Print the response data
except requests.RequestException as e:
print(f'Error: {e}')
PowerShell code to extract data.
$url = 'https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00053&resourceId=RS00055&top=100&type=json'
try {
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method Get
# Print the response
Write-Output $response
} catch {
# Print error message if request fails
Write-Error "Error: $_"
}
The following snippet brings data into your application.
require 'net/http'
url = URI('https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00053&resourceId=RS00055&top=100&type=json')
begin
response = Net::HTTP.get_response(url)
if response.is_a?(Net::HTTPSuccess)
puts response.body
else
puts "Error: #{response.code} - #{response.message}"
end
rescue StandardError => e
puts "Error: #{e.message}"
end
