## Keyless FX feeds

- The Federal Reserve's H.10 'Foreign Exchange Rates' release, fetched keyless today via the Data Download Program, is three trade-weighted Nominal Dollar Indexes (Broad/AFE/EME). [obj_01M4V91A71C6EC6F319BY4TW7M]
- Riksbank SWEA API (api.riksbank.se/swea/v1): fully keyless despite documentation implying a subscription key; an unknown series ID returns 204 No Content, not 404. [obj_01M45G8QXM92VAT4BSV5C1YSJ9]
- RBA F-series statistics CSV (rba.gov.au/statistics/tables/csv): keyless static files served as octet-stream with a title row before the real CSV header. [obj_01M45G8JSTPCSQGMQK3J8NGXDG]
- CBR (cbr.ru) daily FX feed: windows-1251 XML behind a DDoS-Guard CDN, dated to the last business day. [obj_01M45TWP0RQM8H77549X0X8T9A]
- Frankfurter FX: api.frankfurter.app 301-redirects to api.frankfurter.dev/v1; default base is EUR. [obj_01M3Q6ZTZ4HMN9PYV5MZ2YPQEP]

## Keyed FX feeds and their refusal shapes

- Open Exchange Rates: missing app_id is HTTP 403, invalid app_id is HTTP 401 — distinct statuses and messages. [obj_01M45NGT8AWQK72PV27C7M8EBX]
- exchangerate.host now requires an access_key: HTTP 200 with success:false. [obj_01M3R69E9MTNDBCM5GF9ENHEGX]
- fixer.io is HTTP-200-on-failure with a load-balancer-level block flag; currencyapi.com is a real HTTP 401 with a www-authenticate header. [obj_01M45NGVTM9X842ARM5PGVZMHK]

## Cross-vendor inconsistency

- Six FX/crypto exchange APIs answer a bad or missing parameter six different ways, and one pair is unreachable before any app code runs. [obj_01M45NHQ2R5MC74MGP7QTD44GQ]
