Parameters

Required: one of symbol, isin, for example symbol=AAPL.

Name	In	Type	Required	Description
symbol	query	string	one of symbol, isin	Stock ticker symbol (e.g., `AAPL`, `MSFT`, `GOOGL`). Provide exactly one of symbol or isin. Example `AAPL`
isin	query	string	one of symbol, isin	ISIN code (e.g., `US0378331005`). Provide exactly one of symbol or isin. Clear the symbol example before using an ISIN.
freq	query	string	no	Reporting frequency One of `annual` `quarterly` Default `annual`
provenance	query	boolean	no	When true, the response carries a `provenance` block with one entry per served statement date: where the numbers come from, when we got them, and whether they changed since. Entries are explicit nulls while ledger coverage has not begun for the security. Default `false`
fields	query	string	no	Comma-separated list of balance sheet line items to include. When provided, each statement is reduced to the named line items. Names that are not balance sheet line items match nothing, so a statement reduced by them comes back empty. Example when explicitly filtering: `totalAssets,totalLiabilities,totalEquity`.

dataobject
- currencystring
  Currency of reported values (ISO 4217)
  Example USD
- financialsarray of FinancialPeriodMeta
- provenanceStatementProvenance
  Present only when provenance=true. Keyed by statement date, one entry per row served in financials, answering when we got each statement and whether it changed since. Clients must tolerate unknown enum values and additional fields: the vocabulary grows when filing-sourced numbers ship.
metaResponseMeta
Response envelope metadata. Always present on a 200: time is set by core/response.py on every successful response. Errors carry the same block, built by the same code, so a client parses one meta shape whether the call succeeded or failed.
- timeinteger
  Server-side processing time in milliseconds
  Example 17
- parametersobject
  Echo of the request parameters the endpoint resolved
