## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### What does Finance Yahoo Com Scraper do?

Yahoo Finance Scraper API extracts structured stock quotes from [finance.yahoo.com](https://finance.yahoo.com) screener lists: price, change, volume, market cap and valuation ratios for every symbol. Optional enrichment adds the company or fund profile and key statistics, dividends and splits, and the at-the-money call and put of the nearest expiration with strike, bid/ask, open interest, implied volatility and Black-Scholes option Greeks. Export as JSON or CSV, or read the dataset through the Apify API.

**New to Apify?** [Sign up free](https://console.apify.com/sign-up?fpr=1h3gvi) and use the included $5 monthly platform credit to test this actor.

### Key features

- **💵 Structured pricing:** structured `price`, `change`, `changePercent`, `volume`, `marketCap`, day range and 52-week range on every quote — numbers you can sort and compare without parsing text.
- **🔍 Screener lists:** pick one or more Yahoo Finance screener lists (most actives, day gainers, day losers, undervalued growth stocks, top mutual funds and more) with the `query` input.
- **🔗 Paste-mode:** paste finance.yahoo.com screener URLs into `startUrls` to scrape exactly the lists you picked in the browser.
- **📋 Detail enrichment:** turn on `includeDetails` for each symbol's company or fund profile and key statistics (valuation ratios, margins, share structure, dividends, earnings date).
- **📈 Dividends, splits and option Greeks:** opt in to `includeEvents` for each symbol's dividend and split history, and to `includeGreeks` for the at-the-money call and put with implied volatility, open interest and Black-Scholes delta, gamma, theta, vega and rho.
- **♻️ Incremental mode:** recurring runs emit only quotes that are new or changed since the last run, so a scheduled watchlist stays small.
- **🔔 Notifications:** Telegram, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp Cloud API, and generic webhook out of the box. Pair with incremental for daily new-listing alerts without pipeline glue.
- **📦 Compact mode:** core quote fields only (symbol, name, price, change, volume, market cap) for AI agents and MCP tools.
- **🔌 MCP connectors:** push a run summary into Notion via Apify's MCP connectors — no export step, no glue code. Opt-in, deterministic field mapping (no AI).
- **📌 Change classification:** each record carries a `changeType` of NEW / UPDATED / UNCHANGED / REAPPEARED / EXPIRED. Default emits NEW + UPDATED + REAPPEARED; opt into the others with `emitUnchanged` / `emitExpired`.
- **📤 Export anywhere:** Download the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Apify Console, or stream live via the Apify API and integrations (Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, n8n, …).

### What data can you extract from Yahoo Finance?

Each result includes Core quote fields (`type`, `symbol`, `name`, `quoteType`, `exchange`, `exchangeCode`, `currency`, and `marketState`, and more) and detail fields when enrichment is enabled (`detailFetched`). In standard mode, all fields are always present — unavailable data points are returned as `null`, never omitted. In compact mode, only core fields are returned.

Detail enrichment is on by default and fetches each record's detail page — extra fields the search results omit.

### Input

The main inputs are a search keyword and a result limit. Additional filters and options are available in the input schema.

Key parameters:

- **`query`** — Which Yahoo Finance screener list to scrape, e.g. `most_actives`, `day_gainers`, `day_losers`, `growth_technology_stocks`, `undervalued_growth_stocks`, `aggressive_small_caps`, `small_cap_gainers`, `most_shorted_stocks`, `undervalued_large_caps`, `top_mutual_funds`, `high_yield_bond`. Use a JSON array for several lists in one run (e.g. `["day_gainers","day_losers"]`). Required if no tickers, search terms or startUrls provided.
- **`maxResults`** — Maximum total quotes (0 = unlimited). (default: `100`)
- **`startUrls`** — Paste raw screener URLs from finance.yahoo.com. Each URL becomes its own task; results are merged and deduped by symbol across all URLs. When provided, startUrls REPLACE the screener list field (each supported URL becomes one task; unsupported URLs are skipped, and if none is supported the run stops with an input error). (default: `[]`)
- **`tickers`** — Ticker symbols or Yahoo Finance quote URLs: `AAPL`, `SPY`, `BTC-USD`, `EURUSD=X`, `^GSPC`, `GC=F`. Overrides screeners when set; one quote per symbol, in the order given. Symbols Yahoo Finance does not know are skipped. (default: `[]`)
- **`searchTerms`** — Company names, ISINs or other search terms (e.g. `Apple`, `US0378331005`). Each term is resolved to its top matching symbol and handled like a ticker. (default: `[]`)
- **`includeDetails`** — Also fetch the company/fund profile and key statistics for each symbol (one extra request per symbol). (default: `true`)
- **`includeEvents`** — Add each symbol's dividend payments and stock splits within the chosen period (one extra request per symbol). (default: `false`)
- **`eventsRange`** — How far back to list dividends and splits. Only used with Include Dividends & Splits. (default: `"5y"`)
- **`includeGreeks`** — Add the at-the-money call and put of the nearest expiration at least 7 days out (the nearest one if none is that far), with price, bid/ask, volume, open interest, implied volatility and Black-Scholes delta, gamma, theta (per day), vega (per 1 volatility point) and rho (per 1 percentage point of rate). Only for symbols that have listed options; others get empty values. One or two extra requests per symbol. (default: `false`)
- **`riskFreeRate`** — Interest rate used for the Greeks, as a decimal (e.g. 0.043 for 4.3%). Leave empty to use the current 13-week US Treasury bill yield from Yahoo Finance. Only used with Include Option Greeks.
- **`includeHistory`** — Add OHLCV candles (open, high, low, close, adjusted close, volume) for each symbol in the field `history`, oldest first. One extra request per symbol. (default: `false`)
- **`historyRange`** — How far back the price history goes. Ignored when a History Start Date is set. (default: `"1mo"`)
- ...and 34 more parameters

### Input examples

**Basic search** — Keyword-driven search with a result cap.

→ Full payload per result — all standard fields populated where the source provides them.

```json
{
  "query": "most_actives",
  "maxResults": 50
}
```

**Incremental tracking** — Only emit quotes that changed since the previous run with this `stateKey`.

→ First run builds the baseline state. Subsequent runs emit only records that are new or whose tracked content changed. Set `emitUnchanged: true` to include unchanged records as well.

```json
{
  "query": "most_actives",
  "maxResults": 200,
  "incrementalMode": true,
  "stateKey": "most_actives-tracker"
}
```

**Compact output for AI agents** — Return only core fields for AI-agent and MCP workflows.

→ Small payload with the most important fields — ideal for piping into LLMs without token overhead.

```json
{
  "query": "most_actives",
  "maxResults": 50,
  "compact": true
}
```

### Incremental fields

When incremental mode is on, each record also carries:

- `changeType` — one of `NEW`, `UPDATED`, `UNCHANGED`, `REAPPEARED`, `EXPIRED`. Default output covers `NEW` / `UPDATED` / `REAPPEARED`; set `emitUnchanged: true` or `emitExpired: true` to opt into the others.
- `isRepost`, `repostOfId`, `repostDetectedAt` — populated when a new listing matches the tracked content of a previously expired one. Set `skipReposts: true` to drop detected reposts from the output.

### How to scrape Yahoo Finance

1. Go to [Finance Yahoo Com Scraper](https://apify.com/blackfalcondata/finance-yahoo-com-scraper?fpr=1h3gvi) in Apify Console.
2. Enter a search keyword.
3. Set `maxResults` to control how many results you need.
4. Keep `includeDetails` on (the default) for the extra detail-page fields, or turn it off for faster, cheaper runs.
5. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish.
6. Export the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

### Use cases

- Extract quote data from Yahoo Finance for market research and competitive analysis.
- Track pricing trends across regions and categories over time.
- Monitor new and changed quotes on scheduled runs without processing the full dataset every time.
- Feed structured data into AI agents, MCP tools, and automated pipelines using compact mode.
- Export clean, structured data to dashboards, spreadsheets, or data warehouses.
- Benchmark seller / dealer reputation using rating fields.

### How much does it cost to scrape Yahoo Finance?

Finance Yahoo Com Scraper uses [pay-per-event](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/paid-actors/pay-per-event) pricing. You pay a small fee when the run starts and then for each result that is actually produced.

- **Run start:** $0.00005 per run
- **Per result:** $0.00081 per quote record

Example costs:

- 10 results: **$0.00814**
- 25 results: **$0.02**
- 100 results: **$0.081**
- 200 results: **$0.16**
- 500 results: **$0.41**

#### Example: recurring monitoring savings

These examples compare full re-scrapes with incremental runs at different churn rates. Churn is the share of quotes that are new or whose tracked content changed since the previous run. Actual churn depends on your query breadth, source activity, and polling frequency — the scenarios below are examples, not predictions.

Example setup: 250 quotes per run, daily polling (30 runs/month). Costs scale linearly with the number of quotes.

| Churn rate | Full re-scrape run cost | Incremental run cost | Savings vs full re-scrape | Monthly cost after baseline |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| 5% — stable niche query | $0.20 | $0.01 | $0.19 (95%) | $0.31 |
| 15% — moderate broad query | $0.20 | $0.03 | $0.17 (85%) | $0.91 |
| 30% — high-volume aggregator | $0.20 | $0.06 | $0.14 (70%) | $1.82 |

Full re-scrape monthly cost at the same cadence: $6.08. First month with incremental costs $0.50 / $1.08 / $1.97 for the 5% / 15% / 30% scenarios because the first run builds baseline state at full cost before incremental savings apply.

Platform usage is included in the per-result fee shown above.

### FAQ

#### How many results can I get from Yahoo Finance?

The number of results depends on the search query and available quotes on Yahoo Finance. Use the `maxResults` parameter to control how many results are returned per run.

#### Does Finance Yahoo Com Scraper support recurring monitoring?

Yes. Enable incremental mode to only receive new or changed quotes on subsequent runs. This is ideal for scheduled monitoring where you want to track changes over time without re-processing the full dataset.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum total quotes (0 = unlimited).

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Paste raw screener URLs from finance.yahoo.com. Each URL becomes its own task; results are merged and deduped by symbol across all URLs.

WhatsApp Cloud API permanent access token (System User token from Meta Business). Recipient must have messaged the business number within the last 24h (service-conversation window — free since Nov 2024).

## `whatsappTo` (type: `string`):

Recipient phone in E.164 format without + (e.g. "436641234567"). Recipient must have messaged your business number within last 24h.

## `webhookUrl` (type: `string`):

Receives a JSON POST with {metadata, items} after each run. Universal escape hatch for n8n / Make / Zapier / custom backends.

## `webhookHeaders` (type: `object`):

Optional JSON object of custom headers (e.g. {"Authorization":"Bearer ..."}).

## `appConnector` (type: `string`):

Optional. Pick a connected app under Settings → API & Integrations to receive your results (including any contact details). Best-effort across MCP connectors as Apify expands its catalog.

## `mcpIssueTeam` (type: `string`):

Only when the connected app is an issue tracker: the team (name or ID) the summary issue is created under, if that app requires one.

## `descriptionFormat` (type: `string`):

Choose which representation of the listing description to include. `all` keeps every variant; the others keep only the selected one.

# Actor output Schema

## `results` (type: `string`):

No description

# 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 '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "query": "most_actives",
    "maxResults": 100,
    "excludeEmptyFields": false,
    "descriptionFormat": "all"
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("blackfalcondata/finance-yahoo-com-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);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {
    "query": "most_actives",
    "maxResults": 100,
    "excludeEmptyFields": False,
    "descriptionFormat": "all",
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("blackfalcondata/finance-yahoo-com-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "query": "most_actives",
  "maxResults": 100,
  "excludeEmptyFields": false,
  "descriptionFormat": "all"
}' |
apify call blackfalcondata/finance-yahoo-com-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,blackfalcondata/finance-yahoo-com-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
