> **For coding agents and LLMs:** This is one page from the Social Fetch docs (markdown export). For curated orientation and workflow guidance, start with [`/llms.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.txt); for agent onboarding and crawl rules, use [`/agents.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/agents.txt); for the full endpoint list with links to pages like this one, use [`/llms-endpoints.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms-endpoints.txt); for one platform's parameters and curls, use [`/llms-{platform}.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms-tiktok.txt); use [`/llms.json`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.json) when you need structured JSON for tool registration.

## API base URL and authentication

- **API origin (from OpenAPI `servers`):** `https://api.socialfetch.dev`
- **Authentication:** send `x-api-key: sfk_...` on `/v1/**` and `/v2/**` routes unless the operation is explicitly anonymous (check OpenAPI `security`, the [API reference hub](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api.mdx), [`/llms.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.txt), or [`/llms.json`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.json) for each route).
- **OpenAPI JSON:** <https://www.socialfetch.dev/openapi.json>

- [API reference hub](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api.mdx) — human-friendly index of operations with links into generated pages.
- [Errors](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/errors.mdx) — shared error envelope and HTTP status guidance.
- [Credits](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/credits.mdx) — metering, `402`, and planning batch jobs.
- Outcome semantics such as `found`, `not_found`, and `private` are documented in [Errors](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/errors.mdx) and on operation pages when present in the OpenAPI contract.

## Markdown docs convention

- Every docs page has a markdown twin: append **`.mdx`** to the docs pathname (for example `/docs/quickstart` → `/docs/quickstart.mdx`).
- Agents that send `Accept: text/markdown` on `/docs/**` HTML URLs may receive markdown directly (same URL, `Vary: Accept`).
- Published blog posts use the same convention: `/blog/{slug}` → `/blog/{slug}.mdx`, or `Accept: text/markdown` on the HTML URL (`Vary: Accept`).

# Get Yahoo Finance chart (https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api/v1/yahoo-finance/instruments/symbol/chart/get)

## Summary

Get Yahoo Finance chart bars, dividends, splits and capital gains.

**Tags:** `Yahoo Finance`

## HTTP

- **Method:** GET
- **Path:** `/v1/yahoo-finance/instruments/{symbol}/chart`
- **Base URL:** `https://api.socialfetch.dev`

## Capability summary

- **SDK mapping:** `client.yahooFinance.getChart({ symbol: "AAPL", range: "1y", interval: "1d" })`
- **Accepted identifiers:** `symbol` (path)
- **Pagination:** none
- **Business outcome field:** `data.lookupStatus` with values `found`, `not_found`

## Credits

- **Maximum on success (200):** 1 credit.
- **Failed requests (`lookup_failed`, `503`):** not charged.
- **Authoritative field:** `meta.creditsCharged`.

## Authentication

- **`x-api-key`**: API key (`sfk_...`)

## Parameters

### `symbol` (path)

- **Required:** yes
- **Constraints:** type `string`; minLength: 1; maxLength: 40; pattern: `^[A-Za-z0-9^=.-]+$`
- **Description:** Ticker symbol, case-insensitive, e.g. `AAPL`, `^GSPC`, `EURUSD=X`, `BTC-USD`, `7203.T`.

### `interval` (query)

- **Required:** no
- **Constraints:** type `string`; enum: 1m, 2m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 60m, 90m, 1h, 4h, 1d, 5d, 1wk, 1mo, 3mo
- **Description:** Bar size. Default: `1d`. `1m` bars cover the last 30 days, at most 8 days per request. `2m`, `5m`, `15m`, `30m` and `90m` cover at most 60 days; `60m`, `1h` and `4h` at most 730 days.

- **Description:** Corporate events to include: `div`, `split`, `capitalGain`, comma-separated. Default: `div,split`.

### `includeExtendedHours` (query)

- **Required:** no
- **Constraints:** type `boolean`
- **Description:** Include pre-market and post-market bars. Default: false.

## Response body (200)

A Yahoo Finance chart.

### Field outline

- **data** (required) — type `object`. Endpoint-specific response payload.
  - **lookupStatus** (required) — type `string`; enum: found, not_found. Whether the entity was found. HTTP 200 for both outcomes; branch on this field.

### Machine-readable error codes

When an error JSON body is returned, it may include one of these `error.code` values (derived from the OpenAPI schemas for this operation; additional codes may exist at runtime):

- `bad_request`

## Error handling & retries

Interpret HTTP status codes using the descriptions below. Do not assume a JSON body unless the OpenAPI schema defines one for that status.

- **400**: Invalid request **Retry:** Fix the request; retrying the same invalid payload will not help.
- **401**: Missing or invalid API key **Retry:** Fix the API key first; retrying without changes will not help.
- **402**: Insufficient credits **Retry:** Do not retry without resolving billing/credits (retrying the same request will not help).
- **500**: Unexpected or billing error
- **502**: Lookup could not be completed. **Retry:** May be transient; a few retries with backoff are reasonable.
- **503**: Service temporarily unavailable; safe to retry with backoff. **Retry:** Usually safe to retry with exponential backoff and jitter.

### Suggested client defaults

- Send the API key using the `x-api-key` header on every request.
- On `503` (and sometimes `502`), retry with backoff; cap retries and surface a clear error to the user.
- On `402`, surface an actionable billing message rather than blind retries.

## Examples

### TypeScript SDK

```typescript
import { SocialFetchClient } from "@socialfetch/sdk";

const client = new SocialFetchClient({
  apiKey: process.env.SOCIALFETCH_API_KEY!,
});

const result = await client.yahooFinance.getChart({
  symbol: "AAPL",
  interval: "1d",
  range: "1y",
});

if (!result.ok) {
  console.error(result.error);
} else {
  console.log(result.value.data);
}
```

### Node.js

```javascript
const response = await fetch(
  "https://api.socialfetch.dev/v1/yahoo-finance/instruments/AAPL/chart?interval=1d&range=1y",
  {
    headers: {
      "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
    }
  }
);

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
```

### cURL

```bash
curl "https://api.socialfetch.dev/v1/yahoo-finance/instruments/AAPL/chart?interval=1d&range=1y" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"
```

### Python

```python
import requests

response = requests.get(
    "https://api.socialfetch.dev/v1/yahoo-finance/instruments/AAPL/chart?interval=1d&range=1y",
    headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
)
data = response.json()
print(data)
```
