Before you connect
Questions about SEC EDGAR.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can the SEC XBRL MCP pull data for international companies?
Yes, the Connector can access data for any entity that files with the SEC, including many international companies that report in the U.S. market.
Do I need a special account to use the SEC XBRL MCP?
You do not need a special account. You only need to provide your SEC User-Agent string, which is a standard requirement for accessing their public data.
How does the SEC XBRL MCP handle different accounting standards?
The Connector handles multiple taxonomies, including US-GAAP and IFRS, allowing you to pull standardized facts regardless of the specific reporting standard used.
Can I use the SEC XBRL MCP to find specific 8-K filings?
Yes, the Connector can retrieve the submission history for any CIK, which includes 8-K, 10-K, and 10-Q filings.
Is the data from the SEC XBRL MCP updated in real time?
The Connector pulls from the SEC's public filing infrastructure, so it reflects the most recent data made available by the commission.
How do I find the filing history for a specific company?
Use the get_submissions capability with the company's Central Index Key (CIK). For example, Apple is 320193. The capability automatically handles leading zeros.
Can I retrieve specific financial metrics like 'Net Income' for a company?
Yes. Use get_company_concept by providing the CIK, the taxonomy (usually 'us-gaap'), and the XBRL tag (like 'NetIncomeLoss').
How can I compare a single metric across all companies for a specific year?
Use the get_xbrl_frames capability. You can specify a concept, unit, and period (e.g., 'CY2023') to get data for every reporting entity in that timeframe.
