Concept Groups for Core Financials

Concept Groups for Core Financials

Specific to the Financials and HackPack Plans, DataFi leverages concept groups to reflect the logical grouping of the available data fields in the dataset into smaller categories to formulate calls for financial statements or company descriptive information.  The concept groups tie to product packages and entitlements and are designed to be a logical reflection of how to group the data and tie it together for rendering or further analysis. For example, if your application renders primary financial statements, you can leverage the Balance Sheet, Income Statement and/or Cash Flow Statement concept groups to easily call for all fields that would populate the rendering of a statement.

With a free evaluation key to Financials or the HackPack, the consolidated primary financials, specifically the balance sheet, cash flow statement, income statement and free metadata is included for the most recent annual timeframe.  For access to deeper history, more financials, additional descriptive data or ratios, please contact us to modify the entitlements associated with your application key. 

The table below outlines the various concept groups available through the dataset.  For the free evaluation plans, the consolidated financial statement data concept groups are included.

Sample calls: There are two ways to make an API call using a parameter or using a filter. The difference between these calls is based on each resource table and the supported parameter and filter name as defined. Using a parameter is like using a querystring but if you choose to use a filter then it requires expression. Please refer to the filter expression table.

Example:

Parameter Call:

companyNames=Microsoft

Filter Call:

filter=companyName eq "Microsoft"
