ipeadatar 0.2.1 (2026-07-22)

Bug fixes

Fixed SSL-related connection issues in:

• ipeadata()
• metadata()
• available_series()
• available_subjects()
• available_territories()

Data retrieval now uses explicit HTTP requests via curl::curl_fetch_memory() before JSON parsing, improving compatibility on systems where direct URL access could fail with SSL errors.

Improvements

• Added automatic fallback between HTTPS and HTTP API endpoints, increasing robustness when the primary endpoint is temporarily unavailable.
• Improved handling of API responses.
• Minor maintenance and code quality improvements.

Documentation

• Updated package vignettes.
• Corrected vignette paths and examples.
• Improved reproducibility of vignette code.
