The most complete SEC EDGAR filings scraper available. It returns every field the SEC EDGAR submissions API exposes for each filing along with the full company profile (addresses, EIN, SIC, exchanges, former names), plus an optional insider-transactions parser for Form 3, 4 and 5 filings, and gives you six filters to target exactly the filings you need.

What it does

The actor resolves each company you pass (by ticker, CIK, or company name substring) to its SEC CIK, reads that company's EDGAR submissions history, applies the form-type and date filters, and writes one normalized record per filing to the run's dataset. Every filing record carries the full company profile (business and mailing addresses, EIN, phone, SIC code and description, exchanges, former names) alongside the filing metadata (form, dates, accession number, primary document URL, file number, item codes, size and XBRL flags).

With withDetails on, ownership filings (Form 3, 4 and 5) are parsed into insider transactions: the reporting owner, their role, and each trade (shares, price, date, shares owned after), plus an aggregate bought/sold/net signal. This adds one detail request per matching filing.

Data covers US SEC EDGAR filings. The SEC asks clients to identify themselves and rate-limit requests, which the actor handles automatically.

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It returns up to 10 of the most recent 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K filings for Apple and Microsoft.

{
  "maxFilings": 10,
  "withDetails": false,
  "tickers": ["AAPL", "MSFT"],
  "formTypes": ["10-K", "10-Q", "8-K"]
}

Provide companies by ticker, by CIK, and/or by a company name substring (at least one is required). Leave formTypes empty to keep every form.

Run via API and CLI

Start a run and wait for it to finish, then read the dataset. Replace <TOKEN> with your Apify API token.

Run synchronously and get dataset items in one call:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~sec-edgar-filings-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tickers":["AAPL"],"formTypes":["10-K"],"maxFilings":5}'

Start a run asynchronously:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~sec-edgar-filings-scraper/runs?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tickers":["TSLA"],"formTypes":["4"],"withDetails":true,"maxFilings":50}'

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/sec-edgar-filings-scraper \
  --input '{"ciks":["320193"],"formTypes":["8-K"],"maxFilings":10}'

Fetch results

Every run writes to a dataset. Fetch items as JSON, CSV, or Excel by changing format:

# JSON
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=json"

# CSV
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=csv"

# Paginate large datasets
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&offset=1000&limit=1000"

<DATASET_ID> is returned as defaultDatasetId in the run object. Use offset and limit to page through large result sets. clean=true drops empty and internal fields.

Billing and limits

• Pay per result. You are charged per filing record returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• No charge on failure. If a run errors, the actor writes a single item with a populated error field and does not charge for it. Empty runs cost nothing.
• Spend cap respected. Set maxTotalChargeUsd on the run; once reached, the actor stops emitting and charging further billable results.
• Free Apify plans are capped at 10 records per run. Upgrade for higher maxFilings.
• Source politeness. The SEC rate-limits and requests client identification; the actor respects that automatically, so very large multi-company pulls run at a steady pace.

FAQ and troubleshooting

A run returned 0 records. Why? The company had no filings matching your formTypes and date range, or the ticker/CIK did not resolve. Loosen filters or verify the identifier. Zero-result runs are not charged.

How do I get insider trades? Set formTypes to ["4"] (or include 3 and 5) and turn withDetails on. The actor parses each ownership document into insiderTransactions and an aggregate insiderSignal.

Can I scrape many companies at once? Yes. Pass multiple tickers or ciks, and use maxPerCompany to cap filings per company so one large filer does not dominate the run.

Why is a field null? The SEC submission did not include that value. Missing source values are returned as null, never invented.

Is this an official SEC tool? No. This actor is independent and has no affiliation with the SEC. It reads only data that is publicly available through SEC EDGAR. Use it in accordance with the SEC EDGAR access policies.
