SEC EDGAR Scraper — 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K filings & XBRL financials

Get US public company filings and key financial metrics straight from the official SEC EDGAR APIs. Enter tickers (AAPL, MSFT, BRK.B) or CIK numbers and get clean, structured data: every filing with form type, dates, accession number and direct document links, plus tidy annual and quarterly financials (revenue, net income, EPS, assets and more) ready for spreadsheets, BI tools or models.

No API key, no proxy, no HTML scraping. The Actor calls SEC's JSON endpoints and respects SEC's fair-access rules (identified User-Agent, max ~8 requests/second).

What you get

Item type	Source	Content
filing	data.sec.gov/submissions	Company name, ticker, CIK, form, filing date, report date, accession number, primary document URL, filing index URL, 8-K items
financial	data.sec.gov/api/xbrl/companyfacts	One row per metric and period: value, unit, fiscal year, fiscal period, form, filed date, period start/end, XBRL tag

Financial metrics: Revenues, NetIncomeLoss, OperatingIncomeLoss, Assets, Liabilities, StockholdersEquity, CashAndCashEquivalents, EarningsPerShareBasic, EarningsPerShareDiluted. Revenue falls back across common tags (Revenues → RevenueFromContractWithCustomerExcludingAssessedTax → SalesRevenueNet), so you get one consistent revenue series even when a company changed tags over the years. The tag field tells you which one was used.

How financials are cleaned

XBRL company facts repeat each value in every later filing as a comparative figure. This Actor keeps one row per metric and period, taken from the original report (earliest filing), and only keeps full-year (FY) and single-quarter (Q1-Q4) periods. Six- and nine-month year-to-date values are dropped. Balance-sheet metrics (assets, liabilities, equity, cash) are point-in-time, so periodStart is null.

Tips & limitations

• Fiscal Q4 rows only appear when the company reports a separate fourth-quarter value; most report only the full year in the 10-K (Q4 = FY − Q1 − Q2 − Q3).
• Some companies use other XBRL tags for a metric (e.g. banks, insurers, or EPS per Class A share), so a metric can be missing for them.
• Only us-gaap facts are included; foreign filers reporting under IFRS (20-F) may have few or no financial rows.
• fiscalYear/fiscalPeriod are as reported in the SEC data for that filing.
• Combine with Schedules and Webhooks for automatic filing alerts.
