### Get price indices for date

The integration can also provide price indices for any date with published prices. Use the "Get price indices for date" action to retrieve pricing information with a custom resolution time.

The areas, currency, and resolution parameters are optional. If omitted, the values configured in the integration will be used and for resolution it will default to 60 minutes.

{% configuration_basic %}
Nord Pool configuration entry:
description: Select the Nord Pool configuration entry to target.
Date:
description: Pick the date to fetch prices for (see note about possible dates below).
Areas:
description: Select one market area to create output for. If omitted it will use the areas from the configuration entry.
Currency:
description: Currency to display prices in. EUR is the base currency in Nord Pool prices. If omitted, it will use the currency from the configuration entry.
Resolution:
description: Resolution time for price indices.
{% endconfiguration_basic %}

{% note %}

The public API only allows us to see past pricing information for up to 2 months.

Although Nord Pool operates in the CET/CEST timezone, all data is returned in UTC. Depending on how the data is consumed or manipulated, you may need to consider this.

Tomorrow's prices are typically released around 13:00 CET/CEST, and trying to get them before that time will generate an error that needs to be considered in such a case.

{% endnote %}

{% tip %}
You can get your `config_entry` by using actions within the [developer tools](/docs/tools/dev-tools/): use one of the Nord Pool actions and view the YAML.
{% endtip %}

#### Example action with data

{% raw %}

```yaml
action: nordpool.get_prices_for_date
data:
config_entry: 1234567890a
date: "2024-11-10"
areas:
- SE3
- SE4
currency: SEK
```

{% endraw %}

## Examples

A template sensor to add VAT and fixed cost is useful to get the actual energy cost in the energy dashboard.
