Free Stock APIs in JSON & Excel
Write custom Node.js code and use any of the 400k+ npm packages available. Refer to the Pipedream Node docs to learn more.
The Alpha Vantage API offers access to a wealth of financial data, including real-time and historical stock prices, forex rates, cryptocurrency data, and more. With Pipedream’s serverless platform, you can easily connect Alpha Vantage to a variety of other services and apps to create powerful financial data workflows. Automate the tracking of stock performance, set up alerts for forex rate changes, digest cryptocurrency trends, or integrate financial data into custom dashboards or databases without the need to manage complex infrastructure.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
alpha_vantage: {
type: "app",
app: "alpha_vantage",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://www.alphavantage.co/query?`,
params: {
function: `GLOBAL_QUOTE`,
symbol: `MSFT`,
apikey: `${this.alpha_vantage.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.
This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json
file or running npm install
.
Below is an example of installing the axios
package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios
package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:
// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
async run({ steps, $ }) {
// Return data to use it in future steps
return steps.trigger.event
},
})
