Pricing

$0.001 per item = $1 per 1,000

You are charged forWhenPrice
Item returnedCharged per quote/history row returned.$0.001

Pay-per-event pricing: you are billed per result, not per subscription — a run that returns nothing costs nothing beyond the start fee. Billing is handled by Apify on your own account. These are the live Apify store prices, in effect since 2026-06-12, and they are what you are actually charged.

Inputs

modeWhat to fetch. "search" = find ticker symbols by name (uses Query). "quote" = current price snapshot for each Symbol. "history" = OHLCV price history for each Symbol over Range/Interval.string

symbolsOne or more ticker symbols to fetch, e.g. AAPL, MSFT, ^GSPC (S&P 500 index), EURUSD=X (FX), BTC-USD (crypto). Used by "quote" and "history" modes.array
rangeHow far back the price history goes (history mode). Longer ranges return more rows.string
intervalThe candle size / sampling interval for history. Intraday intervals (1m, 5m) only work with short ranges (about 1d-1mo).string
maxItemsMaximum number of result rows to return and charge for (caps history bars and search results). Quotes return one row per symbol.integer
