SEC EDGAR Filings Query API
The Query API allows you to search and filter all 18 million filings and exhibits published on SEC EDGAR using a large set of search parameters. The database behind the Query API includes all EDGAR filing form types published since 1993 and over 800,000 EDGAR filer entities, with new filings being indexed and searchable as soon as they are published on SEC EDGAR.
You can search filings by ticker, CIK, form type, filing date, SIC code, period of report, series and class IDs, items of 8-K and other filings, and many more. The API returns all filing metadata in a standardized JSON format.
Examples are provided below, in the official documentation, and in our sandbox.
Examples
The following example retrieves all 10-Q filings filed by TSLA in 2020.
from sec_api import QueryApi
queryApi = QueryApi(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
query = {
"query": "ticker:TSLA AND filedAt:[2020-01-01 TO 2020-12-31] AND formType:\"10-Q\"",
"from": "0",
"size": "10",
"sort": [{ "filedAt": { "order": "desc" } }]
}
filings = queryApi.get_filings(query)
print(filings)
Find the most recently reported Form 8-K filings that include Item 9.01 "Financial Statements and Exhibits".
query = {
"query": "formType:\"8-K\" AND items:\"9.01\"",
"from": "0",
"size": "10",
"sort": [{ "filedAt": { "order": "desc" } }]
}
filings = queryApi.get_filings(query)
See the documentation for more details: https://sec-api.io/docs/query-api
Full-Text Search API
Full-text search allows you to search the full text of all EDGAR filings submitted since 2001. The full text of a filing includes all data in the filing itself as well as all attachments (such as exhibits) to the filing.
The example below returns all 8-K and 10-Q filings and their exhibits, filed between 01-01-2021 and 14-06-2021, that include the exact phrase "LPCN 1154".
from sec_api import FullTextSearchApi
fullTextSearchApi = FullTextSearchApi(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
query = {
"query": '"LPCN 1154"',
"formTypes": ['8-K', '10-Q'],
"startDate": '2021-01-01',
"endDate": '2021-06-14',
}
filings = fullTextSearchApi.get_filings(query)
print(filings)
See the documentation for more details: https://sec-api.io/docs/full-text-search-api
Filing Render & Download API
Used to download any filing or exhibit. You can process the downloaded filing in memory or save the filing to your hard drive.
from sec_api import RenderApi
renderApi = RenderApi(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
url = "https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1662684/000110465921082303/tm2119986d1_8k.htm"
filing = renderApi.get_filing(url)
print(filing)
pdf_file_url = "https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1798925/999999999724004095/filename1.pdf"
binary_data = renderApi.get_file(pdf_file_url, return_binary=True)
with open("filename.pdf", "wb") as f:
f.write(binary_data)
See the documentation for more details: https://sec-api.io/docs/sec-filings-render-api
PDF Generator API
SEC filings, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, and others, are typically published in HTML, XML, or text formats. The PDF Generator API enables the conversion of any SEC filing or exhibit into a PDF file, preserving all original formatting, tables, images, and other elements from the filing.
from sec_api import PdfGeneratorApi
pdfGeneratorApi = PdfGeneratorApi("YOUR_API_KEY")
edgar_file_url = "https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/1320695/000132069520000148/ths12-31x201910krecast.htm"
pdf_file = pdfGeneratorApi.get_pdf(edgar_file_url)
with open("filename.pdf", "wb") as f:
f.write(pdf_file)
See the documentation for more details: https://sec-api.io/docs/sec-filings-render-api
SEC EDGAR Filings Real-Time Stream API
The Stream API provides a live stream (aka feed) of newly published filings on SEC EDGAR via WebSockets. A new filing is sent to your connected client as soon as it is published.
Install the websockets
client:
pip install websockets
Run the example script below. Get your free API key on sec-api.io and replace YOUR_API_KEY
with it.
import asyncio
import websockets
import json
API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY"
SERVER_URL = "wss://stream.sec-api.io"
WS_ENDPOINT = SERVER_URL + "?apiKey=" + API_KEY
async def websocket_client():
try:
async with websockets.connect(WS_ENDPOINT) as websocket:
print("✅ Connected to:", SERVER_URL)
while True:
message = await websocket.recv()
filings = json.loads(message)
for f in filings:
print(f["accessionNo"], f["formType"], f["filedAt"], f["cik"])
except Exception as e:
print(f"An unexpected error occurred: {e}")
asyncio.run(websocket_client())
See the documentation for more details: https://sec-api.io/docs/stream-api
XBRL-To-JSON Converter API
Parse and standardize any XBRL and convert it to JSON or pandas dataframes. Extract financial statements and metadata from 10-K, 10-Q and any other SEC filing supporting XBRL.
The entire US GAAP taxonomy is fully supported. All XBRL items are fully converted into JSON, including us-gaap
, dei
and custom items. XBRL facts are automatically mapped to their respective context including period instants and date ranges.
All financial statements are accessible and standardized:
- StatementsOfIncome
- StatementsOfIncomeParenthetical
- StatementsOfComprehensiveIncome
- StatementsOfComprehensiveIncomeParenthetical
- BalanceSheets
- BalanceSheetsParenthetical
- StatementsOfCashFlows
- StatementsOfCashFlowsParenthetical
- StatementsOfShareholdersEquity
- StatementsOfShareholdersEquityParenthetical
Variants such as ConsolidatedStatementsofOperations
or ConsolidatedStatementsOfLossIncome
are automatically standardized to their root name, e.g. StatementsOfIncome
.

Usage
There are 3 ways to convert XBRL to JSON:
from sec_api import XbrlApi
xbrlApi = XbrlApi("YOUR_API_KEY")
xbrl_json = xbrlApi.xbrl_to_json(
htm_url="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/320193/000032019320000096/aapl-20200926.htm"
)
print(xbrl_json["StatementsOfIncome"])
print(xbrl_json["BalanceSheets"])
print(xbrl_json["StatementsOfCashFlows"])
xbrl_json = xbrlApi.xbrl_to_json(
xbrl_url="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1318605/000156459021004599/tsla-10k_20201231_htm.xml"
)
xbrl_json = xbrlApi.xbrl_to_json(accession_no="0001564590-21-004599")
