Stocks

So you have completed the initial steps and are ready to dive deep into endpoints. Read this page to know everything you need to know about using the various Stocks HTTP endpoints.

See Async Support for REST endpoints for asynchronous use cases.

Docs below assume you have already read getting started page and know how to create the client. If you do not know how to create the client, first see General guide for clients & functions and create client as below. As always you can have all 5 different clients together.

import polygon

stocks_client = polygon.StocksClient('KEY')  # for usual sync client
async_stock_client = polygon.StocksClient('KEY', True)  # for an async client

here is how the client initializer looks like:

polygon.stocks.stocks.StocksClient(api_key: str, use_async: bool = False, connect_timeout: int = 10, read_timeout: int = 10, pool_timeout: int = 10, max_connections: int | None = None, max_keepalive: int | None = None, write_timeout: int = 10)

Initiates a Client to be used to access all REST Stocks endpoints.

Parameters:

api_key – Your API Key. Visit your dashboard to get yours.
use_async – Set it to True to get async client. Defaults to usual non-async client.
connect_timeout – The connection timeout in seconds. Defaults to 10. basically the number of seconds to wait for a connection to be established. Raises a ConnectTimeout if unable to connect within specified time limit.
read_timeout – The read timeout in seconds. Defaults to 10. basically the number of seconds to wait for date to be received. Raises a ReadTimeout if unable to connect within the specified time limit.
pool_timeout – The pool timeout in seconds. Defaults to 10. Basically the number of seconds to wait while trying to get a connection from connection pool. Do NOT change if you’re unsure of what it implies
max_connections – Max number of connections in the pool. Defaults to NO LIMITS. Do NOT change if you’re unsure of application
max_keepalive – max number of allowable keep alive connections in the pool. Defaults to no limit. Do NOT change if you’re unsure of the applications.
write_timeout – The write timeout in seconds. Defaults to 10. basically the number of seconds to wait for data to be written/posted. Raises a WriteTimeout if unable to connect within the specified time limit.

Endpoints

To use any of the below method, simply call it on the client you created above. so if you named your client client, you’d call the methods as client.get_trades and so on. Async methods will need to be awaited, see Async Support for REST endpoints.
