Response fields and example
This example is illustrative, not a captured live response. Variable-cost operations may settle a charge different from the list price below. A successful response puts the platform payload in data and reports the exact credits used, remaining balance, request id and cache status beside it.
{
"success": true,
"platform": "google_finance",
"endpoint": "/v1/google_finance/ticker-search",
"data": {
"count": 0,
"has_more": false,

}The example is illustrative and shows a documented subset of data. The fields below are optional across supported sources; nullable fields can also be absent. Preserve unknown values and accept additional fields.
Schema basis: observed response shapes, not an exhaustive field specification. See schema coverage and validation limits.
Download the data JSON Schema. Validate response.data, not the whole envelope. A valid shape does not establish that every field or source record was returned.
| Field inside data | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
count | number | null | Number of records in this response, not lifetime or total matches. |
has_more | boolean | null | Source continuation indicator; null means unknown. |
items | array | null | Returned records. Source coverage and completeness vary. |
items[].as_of | string | null | Optional as of supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].change | number | null | Optional change supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].change_percent | number | null | Optional change percent supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].currency | string | null | Optional currency supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].exchange | string | null | Optional exchange supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].name | string | null | Optional name supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].platform | string | null | Optional platform supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].price | number | null | Source price. Currency, taxes and availability depend on the listing. |
items[].symbol | string | null | Optional symbol supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].ticker | string | null | Optional ticker supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].trend | string | null | Optional trend supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
items[].url | string | null | Original source URL when supplied. |
query | string | null | Optional query supplied by this operation. Null means unknown. |
Optional fields reviewed from preserved successful responses. Additive fields and source variations remain allowed; validate the fields your workflow requires.
The example is invented and illustrates types only; zero and empty values are not claims about a real result.
Failures use the typed error envelope. A confirmed uncharged or refunded failure reports zero; a pending reconciliation can report an unknown charge. Read credits_used and error.details.billing_status, and keep request_id for recovery. Response contract · Error reference
