YourIR EZ API Documentation

The EZ API is intended to be used with Javascript Frameworks like React and NextJS in cases that the YourIR Javascript library cannot be made to work with the framework.

Whereas the YourIR Javascript library provides components for all your Investor Relations needs, the EZ API provides data only.

You can start using the EZ API right away without any setup.

Our servers set requests from localhost or unknown *.dev domains to an example config with a random stock (currently ).

You can prototype your Investor Relations and then contact us to set you up properly.

Quick Start

The following requests cover your Investor Relations data needs.

There is no need to specify a stock code or to authenticate, you can just fetch these URLs.

Authorization

The Origin header is used to determine the client.

For example, if your website's URL is https://example.com, then we will associate example.com and www.example.com with your configuration.

You can advise us of other domains, such as your developer or staging domains and we will add them to your configuration.

In the curl examples below, the origin is set to https://example.com, whereas browsers will set it automatically.

If the Origin header cannot be used for whatever reason, we can issue you an application identifier that you can provide with each request:

https://yourir.info/ezapi/quote?appID=...

Responses

All responses (with the exception of announcement PDFs) have content type application/json; charset=utf-8

Successful responses are a JSON object with a result field, and optionally a paging field.

The result field is either an object or an array depending on the type of request.

The paging field is present when the request allows paged responses and a page is requested. If you don't supply the page parameter, all results are returned without paging unless otherwise stated.

                
{
    "result": array or object,
    "paging": {
        "page": number,
        "pageSize": number,
        "pageCount": number,
        "totalItems": number
    }
}

Error responses are a JSON object with en error field.

                
{
    "error": {
        "status": number,
        "code": short description,
        "message": helpful description
    }
}

Stock Code Selection

Rather than using ticker codes which can change, the EZ API uses numbers to identify your stocks.

We will configure your main stock as number 1 and that is the default stock for all requests.

Most companies only need to display a single stock so you don't need to specify it.

Multiple Stocks

If you do have multiple stocks, then we will configure them in the order you like and you request a particular stock by setting the stock parameter to its number.

For example, if your main ticker code is AAA and you also have two warrants AAAWB and AAAWC, then we would configure your stocks as follows:

Code: Number
AAA: 1
AAAWB: 2
AAAWC: 3

And you would then request different stocks by setting the stock parameter:

URI: Code
/quote: AAA
/quote?stock=1: AAA
/quote?stock=2: AAAWB
/quote?stock=3: AAAWC

Name Changes

In the event that your ticker code changes, your configuration will update automatically to reflect the new codes.

You will not need to make any changes.

Indices

If you want to compare your stock with an index, we can configure indices for you too.

Similar to stocks, the default index is number 1 and you request a different index by setting the index parameter to its number.

For example, if you want to compare your stock against All Ords and Mining, then we would configure XAO and XMM as your indices.

You would then request different indices by setting the index parameter:

URI: Code
/indexquote: XAO
/indexquote?index=1: XAO
/indexquote?index=2: XMM
