HUP – Indicadores Económicos (Chile)
Data is fetched in real time from the public mindicador.cl API — a free service that exposes official economic indicators for Chile (sourced from the Central Bank and other entities). No registration or API key is required.
HUP – Indicadores Económicos (Chile) queries the mindicador.cl API automatically and outputs the values through the [hupind_indicadores] shortcode, ready to use in headers, footers, sidebars, Bricks Builder, Elementor and any area of your site.
This project is independent and is not affiliated with any government entity. Data is obtained from the public mindicador.cl API (https://mindicador.cl). The plugin only receives data; it never sends any information to the service.
