GET /series/{id}/continuous

Returns continuous series information

The method extends the history and fill gaps of active series by combining older and newer counterparts of comparable time series to generate a longer series.
Depending on the dataset, data history is extended, and gaps are filled using a combination of geometric compounding and/or filling the missing time points with the comparable older/newer series. CEIC calculates geometric compounding by using the ratio of the first observation of the newer series and the corresponding overlapping time point from the older series, subsequently adjusting observations from the older series using this ratio (i.e., the linking factor). Series estimated using geometric compounding are rounded, if applicable.
The method returns function description, chain_id and series IDs in the historical extension.
