SEC 13F Monitor

Status: ⚠️ Limited API Access - SEC EDGAR lacks direct 13F API

Best for

This actor queries SEC EDGAR 13F filings to return institutional investor portfolio holdings data. Note that SEC EDGAR does not provide a comprehensive direct API for 13F filings; actual holdings data requires XML parsing of EDGAR filing archives.

API Endpoint

• SEC EDGAR: https://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/
• Company Data: https://data.sec.gov/api/xbrl/companyfolders/{CIK}.json
• Note: 13F filings require parsing EDGAR XML data files or web scraping

Capabilities

• Search by CIK number (10-digit SEC Central Index Key)
• Search by company name (requires EDGAR parsing)
• Returns normalized 13F filing records

Input

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
queries	string[]	Yes	-	List of CIK numbers or company names
maxItemsPerQuery	number	No	50	Maximum filings per query
startDate	string	No	""	Start date filter (YYYY-MM-DD)
endDate	string	No	""	End date filter (YYYY-MM-DD)
includeRaw	boolean	No	false	Attach raw response to each record

Example input

{
  "queries": ["0001364742", "Apple Inc"],
  "maxItemsPerQuery": 50,
  "includeRaw": false
}

Notes

• No Direct API: SEC EDGAR doesn't have a comprehensive 13F API
• XML Parsing Required: Real 13F data requires parsing XML XRB files
• CIK Format: Must be 10 digits for direct lookup
• Data Freshness: May have delays due to parsing requirements

Additional notes

Run npm run check to verify syntax:

$npm run check

Additional notes

1. Use SEC's filing data files for real 13F data
2. Consider third-party 13F data providers (e.g., WhaleWisdom, 13FTracker)
3. Implement XML parsing for actual holdings data extraction
4. Add caching for frequently accessed CIK numbers
