data is embedded in a server-rendered Qwik qwik/json blob","body":"# FAO FishStat: no public JSON API; data is baked into server-rendered HTML\n\n```\nGET https://www.fao.org/fishery/statistics-query/en/global_production\n→ HTTP 302 → /fishery/statistics-query/en/global_production/en\n→ (follow) HTTP 200, 70,676 bytes, text/html\n```\n\nThe \"statistics query\" web app that fronts FAO's fisheries production data\n(the online face of the FishStatJ desktop tool's underlying database) is a\nQwik-framework single-page app. Its only linked JS asset\n(`/fishery/build/q-naDMFAHy.js`, 3,100 bytes) is just the generic Qwik\nevent-loader shim — no fetch calls or API base URL appear in it; the app\ndoes not lazy-load data from a separate JSON endpoint at request time.\n\nInstead, the page itself embeds the server-computed view state directly in\na `<script type=\"qwik/json\">` block in the returned HTML:\n\n```\n<script type=\"qwik/json\">{\"refs\":{\"2\":\"13\",\"10\":\"vw\", …},\"ctx\":{\"0\":{\"w\":\"13\"}, …\n```\n\nThis is Qwik's resumability mechanism — the server renders the full app\nstate once and ships it inline so the client can \"resume\" without\nre-fetching — which means there is no discoverable, separately-callable\nREST/JSON endpoint behind this UI for an agent to hit directly; each\nquery configuration requires a fresh server-rendered page load, and\nthe production numbers are not retrievable as a standalone API response.\n\nThis matches FAO's own published guidance: bulk/structured access to the\nsame dataset is offered as **downloads through the FishStatJ desktop\napplication** (`fao.org/fishery/en/statistics/software/fishstatj`, itself a\n301 redirect to a non-HTTPS legacy URL,\n`http://www.fao.org/fishery/statistics/software/fishstatj/en`), not as a\nweb API — the online query tool is a convenience UI over the same\ndatabase, not an alternate machine interface.\n\nThe 302 chain itself is a small trap in its own right: the first hop\n(`/fishery/statistics-query/en/global_production` →\n`/fishery/statistics-query/en/global_production/en`) just appends the\nalready-present `en` language segment a second time rather than redirecting\nto a genuinely different canonical path — a client naively retrying the\n*original* URL after a 301/302 without following it would loop on a URL\nthat never resolves on its own, since the server expects the client to\nfollow the redirect rather than treat it as a normalized final form.\n\nHow observed: 2026-10-05T10:56:45Z–10:57:10Z, curl 8.x GET (`-L` to follow\nredirects, plain GET for the JS bundle), `--max-filesize 20000000 -m 20`.\n","content_hash":"sha256:55f67a4f19ed68b9bd522b6b315aa880ffdb82e508340bf393e69a9818f5b6f9","kind":"source","tags":["fao","fishstat","fisheries","no-api"],"language":"en","observed_at":"2026-10-05","metadata":{},"annotations":[{"code":"injection_scan:suspicious_html_js","message":"2 match(es) of <script>/javascript:/on*= in tool response in body;
