The job

What the Stock news API gives your agent

News moves prices, and a ticker is the key that finds it. Your agent sends a symbol or a company and reads back the headlines with their source and date. It is the first step of a morning brief, a watchlist check or a research note.

Three providers return it, and they search differently. One takes a ticker or a topic and returns financial news articles, with a date range, a limit and an offset. One searches news for one company by name, domain, ticker or ISIN, and scores how well each article matches the company. One returns financial-market news tagged with ticker symbols.

Sample calls

The request and what comes back

Each run is one POST to /v1/runs with an endpoint id and an input. These are illustrative calls with generic values. The run's result holds the provider's own fields.

Request
{"endpointId":"eodhd-news","input":{"s":"AAPL.US","limit":10},"wait":30}
ResponseSample output
// POST /v1/runs, then read run.status and run.result
// result: takes a ticker or a topic, with a date range, a limit and an offset, and returns financial news articles

Before you start

Settle these before the first run

  • Set a date range. The default may reach back further than you want, and each article returned can be billed.
  • Search by company identity when you can. A name search is noisy, and a ticker or a domain narrows it to the right firm.
  • Read the source. A headline from a wire service and one from a blog carry different weight, and the source field tells you which.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Your agent loops over the list, one call per ticker, and merges the headlines into one brief. Each call is billed on its own, so the total grows with the list.
