SPP Portal Public Data File Browser API

aid: spp:spp-portal-file-browser-api
name: SPP Portal Public Data File Browser API
description: The HTTP download service behind the SPP Portal public data pages. Anonymous GET requests
  of the form /file-browser-api/download/{dataset}?path={file} return CSV for real-time balancing market
  LMP by settlement location, real-time and day-ahead market clearing prices, operating reserves, hourly
  load, historical generation mix, VER curtailments, capacity of generation on outage, and the WEIS market
  equivalents. Eight dataset paths were confirmed HTTP 200 with content-type text/csv on 2026-07-27 with
  no credentials. SPP documents the datasets and file formats in its Markets Public Data Guide but does
  not publish this HTTP path as a supported interface specification — FTP is the interface SPP formally
  supports.
