# Bloomberg Financials Scraper (`romy/bloomberg-financials-scraper`) Actor

Get income statement and key-statistics data from Bloomberg. Talks directly to Bloomberg's own mobile app API, no login needed. Split from the mature, published bloomberg-all-in-one-api for a focused, single-purpose workflow.

## 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 Bloomberg Financials Scraper do?

**Bloomberg Financials Scraper** takes one or more Bloomberg security ids and pushes income statement financials (quarterly and annual) plus key statistics (P/E ratios, etc.), one dataset row per id.

It talks directly to the same internal API the official Bloomberg Android app uses (`cdn-mobapi.bloomberg.com`), reverse-engineered via live device capture (Frida, bypassing dual TLS cert pinning and root detection) and independently re-confirmed by calling the API directly with no device involved. No Bloomberg account, no API key. This is the financials-and-stats slice of [Bloomberg All-in-One API](https://apify.com/romy/bloomberg-all-in-one-api), split out as its own focused Actor.

### Why use Bloomberg Financials Scraper?

- **Two calls in one row** — income statement and key statistics, fetched in parallel and merged into a single dataset item per security id
- **Real, server-computed currency conversion** — pass `currency: "IDR"` (or any ISO 4217 code) and get genuine localized financials
- **No account needed** — every read request works fully anonymously
- **Use cases:** fundamental analysis pipelines, portfolio screening, financial data enrichment, comparative company research

### Input

| Field      | Type     | Description                                                                       |
| ---------- | -------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `ids`      | string\[] | **Required.** Bloomberg security ids in `symbol:exchange` format, e.g. `aapl:us`. |
| `currency` | string   | ISO 4217 currency code, e.g. `USD`. Applied to the financials call only.          |

Example:

```json
{
    "ids": ["aapl:us", "msft:us"],
    "currency": "USD"
}
```

### Output

One dataset row per security id:

```json
{
    "id": "aapl:us",
    "financials": { "...": "income statement, quarterly + annual sheets" },
    "stats": { "...": "key statistics table" }
}
```

### Known limitations

- **Financials depth is fixed server-side at 4 quarters and 4 years.** The parent actor confirmed this live — every `periods`/`years`/`limit`-style param tried was silently ignored by Bloomberg's API. There is no pagination for this endpoint; this Actor does not expose one.

### Pricing

Pay-per-event: $0.0012 per `financials` result (FREE plan; BRONZE/SILVER/GOLD/PLATINUM/DIAMOND get automatic discounts based on your Apify plan). Billed per security id processed.

# 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 = {
    "ids": [
        "aapl:us"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("romy/bloomberg-financials-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 = { "ids": ["aapl:us"] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("romy/bloomberg-financials-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 '{
  "ids": [
    "aapl:us"
  ]
}' |
apify call romy/bloomberg-financials-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,romy/bloomberg-financials-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).
