## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — 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 Recent Filings

Apify Actor that looks up one or more US ticker symbols or CIKs, fetches recent company submissions from the public SEC EDGAR data.sec.gov API, and writes structured rows:

ticker, cik, name, form, filed, accession, primaryDocument, documentUrl

Default forms: 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K (amendments such as 10-K/A included unless disabled).

Legal public data only. No Playwright. Limited-permission Actor. Standby is off (usesStandbyMode: false). Charge PPE events only. Do not enable Pay per event + usage (needed for agentic payments).

### Input

- tickersOrCiks (required string list): Tickers (AAPL) and/or CIKs (320193 or 0000320193).
- formTypes (string list, default 10-K / 10-Q / 8-K).
- maxFilingsPerIssuer (integer, default 10).
- includeAmendments (boolean, default true).

### SEC User-Agent (required by SEC)

SEC fair-access rules require a User-Agent with a contact. This Actor reads SEC\_USER\_AGENT and defaults to a placeholder:

sec-edgar-recent-filings (contact@example.com)

Before publishing, set a real contact email in Actor environment variables (Console or .actor/actor.json environmentVariables.SEC\_USER\_AGENT). Example: YourName your-actor (you@yourdomain.com).

Docs: https://www.sec.gov/os/accessing-edgar-data

### Pay-per-event (PROPOSED, not live store prices)

Code charges:

- one actor-start event per run (Actor.charge)
- one filing event per dataset item (Actor.pushData(row, "filing"))

Proposed Console prices (not live until you set them in Publication > Monetization):

- actor-start: $0.01
- filing: $0.005

actor.json spec (actorSpecification: 1, docs 2026-08-28) does not include a PPE event list. Pricing is Console-only after push. Do not turn on Pay per event + usage.
Add custom events actor-start and filing. Remove apify-default-dataset-item so dataset writes are not charged twice. Do not combine synthetic apify-actor-start with this custom actor-start event.

Limited permissions: default for new Actors; confirm Settings > Actor permissions > Limited permissions after push.

### Local run (no Apify cloud required)

Install JavaScript dependencies in this folder, then start the Actor with ACTOR\_TEST\_PAY\_PER\_EVENT=true.
The SDK uses local storage/ when APIFY\_IS\_AT\_HOME is unset. Put input at storage/key\_value\_stores/default/INPUT.json. Dataset items: storage/datasets/default/. Local charging-log dataset uses a 1 USD placeholder per event because live prices live on the platform. Network is required for www.sec.gov and data.sec.gov.

Direct entry: node src/main.js
CLI local runner: npx apify-cli run

# 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 = {
    "tickersOrCiks": [
        "AAPL",
        "MSFT"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("darthdimus/sec-edgar-recent-filings").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);
});

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "tickersOrCiks": [
    "AAPL",
    "MSFT"
  ]
}' |
apify call darthdimus/sec-edgar-recent-filings --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,darthdimus/sec-edgar-recent-filings"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
