# Industrial Production API > How much each economy's factories, mines and utilities are actually producing, and which way output is turning — the OECD industrial production index as an API, live from the OECD's official statistics, no key. The industrial production index is one of the headline monthly hard-data prints: it measures the real volume of output across industry (mining, manufacturing and utilities, excluding construction), and its year-on-year change is a direct read on whether the real economy is expanding or contracting — it moves markets and feeds straight into GDP nowcasts. Manufacturing, the largest and most cyclical part, is broken out separately. The OECD publishes a seasonally-adjusted production-volume index for each economy; this API turns it into the number people use — the year-on-year and month-on-month growth of industrial output. The board endpoint ranks every economy by its industrial-production growth (industry excluding construction), with manufacturing alongside, so you can see where factories are humming and where they are stalling. The manufacturing endpoint ranks by manufacturing output growth on its own. The country endpoint gives one economy's industrial and manufacturing growth, year-on-year and month-on-month. Each reading carries its own period and discontinued series are excluded, so the board is genuinely current. The industrial-output / hard-data cut — distinct from the leading-indicator and confidence boards (soft, survey-based, forward-looking), the annual IMF database, and the generic data aggregator. Figures are monthly, in percent. ## Authentication All requests require your oanor API key in the `x-oanor-key` header.
