🏛 Twelve Data Public Scraper

Export the NASDAQ instrument list from Twelve Data's public endpoint as flat rows: ticker, issuer name, currency, exchange, MIC code, country and security type. No API key, no account, no login.

Every model that touches public markets needs a reference list first: which ticker belongs to which issuer, on which exchange, under which MIC code, and what kind of security it is. Twelve Data publishes that list for NASDAQ without a key, as one JSON response. This Actor reads it and writes each instrument into a dataset as 7 data fields, ready to join against a spreadsheet of tickers.

Read the output table before you buy. This Actor returns the NASDAQ reference list only. It does not return quotes, historical prices or technical indicators, and it does not cover forex or crypto. The exchange is fixed at NASDAQ and is not an input.

Who uses it	What they use the list for
📊 Analysts building a comps universe	Getting every NASDAQ ticker with its issuer name and security type in one table
🔗 Data and reporting teams	Mapping tickers to MIC codes and currencies when joining feeds from different vendors
🧾 Diligence and research staff	Checking how an issuer's securities are listed, since one name can carry several tickers
🛠 Tool builders	Seeding a symbol picker or an autocomplete without maintaining a vendor integration

📋 What it does

💡 Why it matters: ticker lists go stale quietly. A scheduled run and a diff against last month's export is the cheapest way to see what listed, what changed name and what disappeared.

• 🏛 Reads Twelve Data's public NASDAQ instrument list, the /stocks endpoint that needs no key.
• 🔤 Returns the ticker and the issuer name on the same row.
• 🏷 Carries the MIC code, the ISO 10383 market identifier, alongside the exchange name.
• 💱 Records the trading currency and the country of listing.
• 🧾 Keeps the security type as Twelve Data classifies it, for example Common Stock.
• 📦 One row per instrument, the same 9 fields every run, exportable as CSV, Excel, JSON or XML.

📊 Output

Every instrument is one flat row.

Field	Type	Description
🔤 symbol	string	Ticker, for example AACB
🏢 name	string	Issuer name, for example Artius II Acquisition Inc.
💱 currency	string	Trading currency, for example USD
🏛 exchange	string	Exchange name, NASDAQ on every row
🔢 mic_code	string	ISO 10383 market identifier code, for example XNMS
🌐 country	string	Country of listing, for example United States
🧾 type	string	Security type as Twelve Data classifies it, for example Common Stock
🕒 scrapedAt	string	ISO timestamp of collection
⚠️ error	string	null on a normal row

Example rows

{
  "symbol": "AACB",
  "name": "Artius II Acquisition Inc.",
  "currency": "USD",
  "exchange": "NASDAQ",
  "mic_code": "XNMS",
  "country": "United States",
  "type": "Common Stock",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-09-14T17:26:00.379Z",
  "error": null
}

{
  "symbol": "AACBR",
  "name": "Artius II Acquisition Inc.",
  "currency": "USD",
  "exchange": "NASDAQ",
  "mic_code": "XNMS",
  "country": "United States",
  "type": "Common Stock",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-09-14T17:26:00.379Z",
  "error": null
}

Those two rows are the same issuer under two tickers, which is the normal shape of the list. Deduplicate on name if you want one row per company.

🤖 Use with an AI agent

Give an agent live access to the instrument list over the Model Context Protocol:

$claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=acquistion-automation/twelvedata-public-scraper"

Then ask it in plain language which tickers an issuer lists on NASDAQ and read the rows back.

❓ Frequently asked questions

Does this return prices, quotes or technical indicators? No. It returns the NASDAQ instrument reference list: ticker, name, currency, exchange, MIC code, country and security type. Price and indicator endpoints at Twelve Data require an API key and are not collected here.

Can I choose a different exchange, or forex and crypto? No. The run reads the NASDAQ listing and the exchange is not an input. exchange is NASDAQ on every row.

Can I look up a single ticker? Not through the input. Collect the list and filter the symbol column after the export.

Why do two rows share the same issuer name? An issuer can list several securities, for example common stock alongside warrants or rights, each with its own ticker. Deduplicate on name for one row per company.

What is mic_code? The ISO 10383 market identifier code for the listing venue, for example XNMS. It is the field to join on when combining data from different market vendors.

What can I export? CSV, Excel, JSON and XML from the run page, or JSON straight from the API.

About Acquisition Automation Co.

We build automation for people buying businesses. The repetitive part of an acquisition search, checking listings, pulling public records, tracking owners and assets, is work a machine should do, so the buyer's time goes into judging deals instead of collecting them.
