Global Filings client library for JavaScript

The Filings API provides a comprehensive set of functionalities for searching and retrieving filing documents from various sources.

This API is designed to expose document search and document retrieval functionality. A document search will allow a request to query FactSet document databases based on certain search criteria specified in the request.

In addition, a document count request will provide information on the number of stories available for a particular security.

The meta endpoints, such as sources, formTypes, timeZones, and categories, provide comprehensive lists of available sources, form types, time zones, and categories, respectively.

This TypeScript/JavaScript package is automatically generated by the OpenAPI Generator project:

Example Code

const { ApiClient, FilingsAPIApi } = require('@factset/sdk-globalfilings');
const { ConfidentialClient } = require('@factset/sdk-utils');

const apiClient = ApiClient.instance;

// Examples for each supported authentication method are below,
// choose one that satisfies your use case.

// (Preferred) OAuth 2.0: FactSetOAuth2
// See https://github.com/FactSet/enterprise-sdk#oauth-20
// for information on how to create the app-config.json file
//
// The confidential client instance should be reused in production environments.
// See https://github.com/FactSet/enterprise-sdk-utils-typescript#authentication
// for more information on using the ConfidentialClient class
apiClient.factsetOauth2Client = new ConfidentialClient('/path/to/app-config.json');

// Basic authentication: FactSetApiKey
// See https://github.com/FactSet/enterprise-sdk#api-key
// for information how to create an API key
// const FactSetApiKey = apiClient.authentications['FactSetApiKey'];
// FactSetApiKey.username = 'USERNAME-SERIAL';
// FactSetApiKey.password = 'API-KEY';

const apiInstance = new FilingsAPIApi();
const ids = ["MODN-US"]; // [String] | Requested symbols or securities.  This is a comma-separated list with a maximum limit of 1000.  Each symbol can be a FactSet exchange symbol, CUSIP, SEDOL, ISIN, or Entity ID
const sources = ["EDG"]; // [String] | Code for document source to include.This is a comma-separated list. Use the `/meta/sources` endpoint to get the list of available sources.  
const opts = {
  'startDate': 20240601, // String | Start Date. Format is YYYYMMDD or relative +/- days (0,-1,etc). 
  'endDate': 20241101, // String | End Date. Format is YYYYMMDD or relative +/- days (0,-1,etc).
  'timeZone': "'America/New_York'", // String | timeZone to return story dates and times.Time zones, represented in POSIX format, are automatically adjusted for daylight savings. timeZone names are sourced from the IANA timezone registry.
  'categories': ["CN:US"], // [String] | Code for categories to include.  This is a comma-separated list. Use the `/meta/categories` endpoint to get the list of available categories.  Default = All categories.
  'primaryId': false, // Boolean | Type of identifier search * true - Returns headlines of stories that have the searched identifier(s) as the primary  identifier. * false - Returns headlines of stories that mentioned or referred to the  identifier.
  'searchText': Officer, // String | Restricts the search to include only document stories that include the searched text. This parameter supports boolean operators as well.
  'formTypes': ["15-12G"] // [String] | The search to include any form types of given sources
};

// Call api endpoint
apiInstance.getCount(ids, sources, opts).then(
  data => {

    console.log('API called successfully. Returned data:');
    console.log(data);
  },
  error => {
    console.error(error);
  },
);

Using a Proxy

To add a HTTP proxy for the API client, you can set the proxyUrl for the ApiClient instance:

const { ApiClient } = require('@factset/sdk-globalfilings');

const apiClient = ApiClient.instance;
apiClient.setProxyUrl('http://username:[email protected]:8080');
