Overview
The DataForSEO - SERP: Get Finance Quote operation fetches detailed financial quote data for a specified stock ticker symbol from Google Finance via the DataForSEO API. This node is useful for retrieving up-to-date market information such as price, volume, and historical graph data for publicly traded stocks or securities.
Typical use cases include:
- Integrating real-time stock quotes into dashboards or reports.
- Automating financial data retrieval for investment analysis.
- Monitoring specific stock performance over different time windows.
For example, you can input the ticker symbol "AAPL" to get Apple's current stock quote along with historical price data for the last day, month, or year.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Keyword (Ticker or Stock Symbol) | The ticker symbol of the publicly traded stock or security to query (e.g., "AAPL" for Apple). |
| Location | Full name of the search engine location to target (e.g., "United States"). Supported locations are listed in DataForSEO docs. |
| Language | Full name of the search engine language to use (e.g., "English"). Supported languages are listed in DataForSEO docs. |
| Window | Time window for the finance quote graph data. Options: Empty, 1D, 5D, 1M, 6M, YTD, 1Y, 5Y, MAX. Default is "1D". |
Output
The node outputs an array of JSON objects containing the financial quote data retrieved from the API. The structure typically includes:
- Current stock price and related metrics.
- Historical price data points according to the selected time window.
- Additional metadata about the stock and market.
If binary data were involved (e.g., charts or images), it would be summarized here, but this node focuses on JSON financial data only.
