Retrieve raw Census group metadata

Usage

tc_groups(dataset, year = NULL, refresh = FALSE)

Arguments

dataset: A Census dataset identifier like "acs/acs5".
year: Optional dataset year.
refresh: Should cached metadata be refreshed?

Value

A tibble of group metadata from the Census API.

Details

This is a lower-level metadata helper. For most ACS and decennial workflows, tc_tables() is the more natural entry point because Census "groups" usually correspond to user-facing tables.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # tinycensus::tc_has_key()
tc_groups("acs/acs5", 2024, refresh = TRUE)
}
