The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) provides programmatic access to foreign assistance data, development finance records, project tracking, aid flow analysis, and global development datasets through a suite of REST APIs. Key offerings include the ForeignAssistance.gov Data API (OAS 3.0) for budgetary and financial foreign aid data across U.S. government agencies, the Development Data Library (DDL) powered by the Socrata Open Data API (SODA) for querying and filtering open datasets, and the Development Experience Clearinghouse (DEC) API for programmatic access to USAID-funded international development documentation. These APIs support researchers, policymakers, journalists, and developers building tools around international aid transparency and global development outcomes.
