Connect EODHD Financial MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect EODHD Financial to LlamaIndex and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Turn Market Data into a Knowledge Base
Use `get_fundamentals` and `get_eod_data` to pull company reports and price history. LlamaIndex doesn't just show you the data; it indexes the results into a vector store. Now you can ask questions in natural language like, "What was Apple's P/E ratio last quarter?" and get an answer sourced directly from the indexed results of your previous tool calls. It's a living knowledge base of market data.
Query Across Time and Tickers
Your agent can fetch historical dividends and splits for a whole portfolio using `get_historical_dividends` and `get_historical_splits`. LlamaIndex ingests this structured data automatically. This lets you build query engines that can compare corporate actions across different companies over time. It connects the dots between a stock split and its subsequent price action because the data is indexed and related.
Ground Answers in Real-Time Prices with LlamaIndex
When your RAG application gets a question about current market conditions, it can use `get_realtime_price` or `get_multi_price` to fetch live data. This information is used to synthesize a fresh, up-to-the-minute answer. This avoids stale information. Your LlamaIndex application answers questions based on what the market is doing right now, because the MCP server provides the live tool for it to call on demand.
