Fetch time-series data for 1–50 BLS series by SeriesID in a single API request (one query against the 500/day limit). Supports optional year range (up to 20 years per request) and BLS-computed period-over-period calculations (net change and percent change; a survey returns whichever it supports and silently omits the rest — CPI and PPI return percent change only, the inflation rate). Observations cover real periods only and are safe to sum or average as returned; set annual_average to add each year's annual-average row, which is that year's mean rather than an additional period. When the total observation count would exceed the inline context budget, results spill to a canvas dataframe and the response includes a dataset.name handle for follow-up SQL via bls_dataframe_query. Use bls_search_series first if you need to resolve a concept to a SeriesID.
