Overview

The News API lets you pull recent news articles for a given ticker. Our news articles are sourced directly from publishers like The Motley Fool, Investing.com, Reuters, and more. We are actively adding more publishers to our network. If you have a publisher that you would like us to add, please email us at [email protected]. To get started, please create an account and grab your API key at financialdatasets.ai. You will use the API key to authenticate your API requests.

​
Getting Started

There are only 3 steps for making a successful API call:
  1. Add your API key to the header of the request as X-API-KEY.
  2. Add the required ticker query param (and optionally limit) to filter the data.
  3. Execute the API request.

​
Example

News
import requests

# add your API key to the headers
headers = {
    "X-API-KEY": "your_api_key_here"
}

# set your query params
ticker = 'AAPL'
limit = 5  # optional, max is 10

# create the URL
url = (
    f'https://api.financialdatasets.ai/news'
    f'?ticker={ticker}'
    f'&limit={limit}'
)

# make API request
response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)

# parse news from the response
news = response.json().get('news')
