Historical GDP in USD

I am downloading historical real GDP per capita for a number of countries (at quarterly granularity), e.g.

aUSGDPCC/CA
aCNCGDHD/CA
aDECGDHD/CA

How does one download per capita GDP in terms of USD?

(I am programming in R: I can probably translate form Python, but R is appreciated)

  • Hi Barbara,
    The figures you retrieve using the RICs you mentioned are indeed in USD:
    get_timeseries('aCNCGDHD/CA')
