Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## SEC EDGAR Filings Scraper — 10-K, 8-K, Form 4 & Full-Text **Pull SEC EDGAR filings** by ticker or CIK — annual reports (10-K), quarterly (10-Q), current reports (8-K), **insider trades (Form 4)** and more — or run a **full-text search** across all filings. Official SEC open data: no API key (just a User-Agent). For **fintech, investing tools, insider-trade alerts and compliance**. ### What it does - **filings** mode: recent filings for any ticker/CIK, filterable by form type, with direct document URLs - **search** mode: full-text search across EDGAR filings - Resolves tickers → CIK automatically ### Use cases - **Investing / fintech tools** — feed filings into dashboards and alerts - **Insider-trade monitoring** — track Form 4 transactions - **Compliance & research** — pull 10-K/10-Q/8-K for any company - **AI / LLM pipelines** — structured filing metadata + document links ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `mode` | string | `filings` | `filings` or `search` | | `tickers` | array | — | Tickers or CIKs (filings mode) | | `formTypes` | array | — | e.g. `10-K`, `8-K`, `4` (empty = all) | | `query` | string | — | Full-text query (search mode) | | `maxItems` | integer | `100` | Max filings | ### Output ```json { "ticker": "AAPL", "company": "Apple Inc.", "cik": "0000320193", "form": "10-K", "filingDate": "2025-11-01", "url": "https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/320193/.../aapl-20250930.htm" } ```` ### FAQ **API key?** None — SEC requires only a User-Agent (set to identify your app). **Insider trades?** Set `formTypes: ["4"]`. **Full-text across all companies?** Use `mode: "search"` with a `query`. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): filings = recent filings for tickers/CIKs; search = full-text search across EDGAR. ## `tickers` (type: `array`): Stock tickers (AAPL, MSFT) or CIK numbers. Used in filings mode. ## `formTypes` (type: `array`): Only keep these forms (e.g. 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, 4). Empty = all. ## `query` (type: `string`): Search phrase across filing text (search mode). ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum filings to return per ticker / per search. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "filings", "tickers": [ "AAPL" ], "formTypes": [], "maxItems": 100 } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "tickers": [ "AAPL" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("agency-shift/sec-edgar-filings-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
