Field definitions should be the same across all field-related interactions #33

Description

@dezzie

Field names and descriptions can be found:

  • HMDA Explore page tooltips
  • Swagger console
  • api.consumerfinance.gov/data/hmda
  • Field Reference page

They should be consistent if we're to provide good context around the data. In some places there isn't even any description.

Proposed fix:

  • …make names, labels, descriptions, etc. consistent.

@cndreisbach @marcesher @virtix I'll need help with this one for the first 2 examples. Will be an opportunity to explain to dev community how changes to API are handled, too. They wanted to know more about that.

Examples using Metropolitan Statistical Area (msamd)
