Describe Filing

post/extensions/roboledger/{graph_id}/operations/describe-filing

Part of RoboLedger: Analytical Views.

How one filing is laid out: entity, periods, statements and disclosures by role, axes, and its text — the Items of a 10-K or 10-Q and its largest text blocks, each with the character offset read-text pages from. On the SEC shared repository the filing is read from its public folder — its own document, from any processed year — and a ticker picks it: the latest annual report, narrowed by fiscal_year / period_type, or one accession, or with form: 8-K the latest earnings release and its exhibits. SEC only: a ledger files no document, and its sections read through disclosures and information-block.

Idempotency: supply an Idempotency-Key header to make safe retries; replays within 24 hours return the same envelope. Reusing the key with a different body returns HTTP 409 Conflict.

Authentication

Authenticate in any one of these ways — not all of them:

  • API key in the X-API-Key header.
  • Bearer token in the Authorization header.
