Financial metrics
Historical valuations, market capitalization, growth, dividend and financial ratios, with input lineage. Each value is the listing's (instrument_id) and names its company (company_id); /v1/financials/metric-definitions describes how each metric is calculated. A calculated value lists the records it was calculated from in input_record_ids; enterprise_value converts a balance sheet in another currency than the market capitalization at the exchange rate of observed_on, and is left out without one. Preferred shares carry no issuer-level metrics (market capitalization, enterprise value, valuation ratios); their dividend metrics come from their own dividend history. dividend_yield is OHLC's, calculated from the dividends the listing itself paid over the trailing 365 days and its latest reconciled close (trailing_dividend_yield is the same value under its first name); the provider's payout_ratio is left out for listings whose statements or earnings are reported in another currency than they trade in (most ADRs). forward_dividend_yield annualises only a payment cadence the dividend history establishes, and dividends paid in another currency than the listing trades in are converted at the exchange rate of the day they detach. Default order: observed_on ascending, id ascending. Omitting entity selectors returns the entitled universe; explicit unauthorized selectors return 403. Data is delivered from validated canonical batches; a connected dataset with nothing published for the key's markets yet returns 503. Access requires the operation capability on the API key.

Parameters
company_idsstringoptional · query- Filter by issuer IDs. May be combined with instrument selectors; filters intersect, except on issuer-level datasets (statements, segments, estimates, earnings, insider transactions), where an instrument selector is read as its company and takes the place of company_ids, so results cover every share class.
instrument_idsstringoptional · query- Filter by stable instrument IDs. IDs and symbols may not be combined.
symbolsstringoptional · query- Convenience lookup for exchange-listed instruments as MIC:TICKER or a bare ticker, which resolves to the exchange listing that ticker; resolves at symbol_at. The MIC and the ticker are case-insensitive, and two spellings of one listing (AAPL and XNAS:AAPL) count as a repeated value. A bare ticker that names no listing as written is also read in the common vendor spellings: with an exchange suffix (RY.TO, SHEL.L, VOD.LSE, BHP.AX), ^GSPC for INDEX:GSPC, and EURUSD=X or EURUSD for FOREX:EUR-USD. A ticker may contain a space (BAC PRL) but not start or end with one. A request in which no symbol resolves returns 404 symbol-not-resolved; otherwise each symbol that does not resolve, or resolves to a listing with no rows for the request (no-data), is an entry of meta.errors. IDs and symbols may not be combined.
symbol_atstringoptional · query- Resolve symbols as they were assigned at the end of this UTC date (YYYY-MM-DD); defaults to as_of. Only listings the security master holds resolve: it was built in September 2026 and records delistings from then on, so most issuers delisted earlier, such as TWTR or SIVB, resolve at no date. Only valid with symbols.
metricsstringoptional · query- IDs from financials/metric-definitions.
fromstringoptional · query- Inclusive lower bound on observed_on.
tostringoptional · query- Inclusive upper bound on observed_on; must be on or after from, so from equal to to selects one day.
as_ofstringoptional · query- Knowledge cutoff as a UTC date (YYYY-MM-DD): the response reflects what was known by the end of that day. Defaults to now; cannot be in the future. A date from before the dataset's knowledge history returns 422 point-in-time-unavailable naming the earliest one, which GET /v1/datasets lists as earliest_as_of.
known_fromstringoptional · query- First UTC date (YYYY-MM-DD, inclusive) on which a revision became known.
known_tostringoptional · query- Last UTC date (YYYY-MM-DD, inclusive) on which a revision became known; on or after known_from.
orderstringoptional · query- Direction on observed_on; ties use ID ascending.
Default:ascdescasc limitintegeroptional · query- Maximum records per page.Default:
100 cursorstringoptional · query- Opaque cursor, expires after one hour; binds filters, order, resolved as_of, account/key and entitlement. Repeat the original query unchanged.
formatstringoptional · query- Response format. csv returns the data rows with a header row, for spreadsheet functions such as IMPORTDATA; nested fields become dotted columns and lists one JSON array cell, the next page cursor is returned in X-Next-Cursor and meta.errors in X-Meta-Errors. A result without rows is the header row alone, listing the documented fields of a row. Default json, or csv when format is omitted and the Accept header ranks text/csv above JSON; a format the Accept header does not admit returns 406 not-acceptable.

Response fields
Returns data as an array of records. All example values are illustrative.
idstring- Record identifier, stable across revisions.
company_idstring- Opaque stable public identifier; never an internal database key.
instrument_idstring · null- Opaque stable public identifier; never an internal database key.
metricstring- Metric ID from financials/metric-definitions.
observed_onstring- observed on
period_startstring · null- period start
period_endstring · null- period end
valueobject- currency_code is required when unit=currency and null otherwise. Null value means unavailable, not zero.
input_record_idsarray- input record ids
Response metadata
Responses include meta.timezone. Dataset responses include next_cursor; health and exports have their own metadata. Request tracing uses the X-Request-ID header.
When something goes wrong
An empty data: [] is a successful query with no matching records. Invalid symbols, permissions and malformed parameters produce an RFC 9457 problem with an actionable detail.
Plans
Requires financials.read. Access, recency and history depth come from the plan definitions the API enforces.
| Plan | Access | Recency | History |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | Included | As published | 5 years |
| Developer | Included | As published | 5 years |
| Pro | Included | As published | 15 years |
| Commercial | Included | As published | Full history |
| Scale | Included | As published | Full history |
Free requests are limited to AAPL, NVDA, JNJ, PEP, MSFT, SPY, QQQ.
History is how far back a plan may request. How far records actually go for a symbol is history_from in dataset coverage. Nothing is real-time. Compare plans
