Australian Bureau of Statistics Data API

Australian Bureau of Statistics · CPI monthly (~last Wednesday of the following month) plus a quarterly index; national accounts quarterly (~9 weeks after quarter end); labour force monthly; WPI quarterly. The ABS revises seasonally adjusted and trend history routinely and periodically re-references its indexes (the 2025 CPI re-reference is why two CPI datasets exist).
