Filing Stream API

The Stream API offers a live, real-time feed of newly published filings from the SEC EDGAR database, delivering these filings directly to your connected client the moment they are released.

This API utilizes push-based WebSocket technology for immediate data transmission. Upon establishing a connection, your client will start receiving updates on new filings in JSON format. The API is compatible with a wide range of programming languages and frameworks, including Python, Node.js, Java, C, C#, C++, Go, and React, among others that support WebSocket clients.
