This table provides material corporate events sourced from SEC Form 8-K filings for more than 10,000 US public companies. Each row represents a filing date and the associated event codes reported in that filing.

For more information on the dataset and the available indicators, please review the events table on the Explorer page.

=IMPORTDATA("https://api.sharadar.com/v1.0/data/events?api_key=test-api-key&format=csv&ticker=AAPL")

Download the [events] table as a compressed CSV. The API responds with a redirect to a time-limited download URL.

Use years=5, years=10, or years=full to select history length when split bulk files are published. If years is omitted, the longest history included in your subscription is used.

https://api.sharadar.com/v1.0/data/events?api_key=test-api-key&bulk=True&years=5

Example using curl (follow redirects and write the file):

curl -L -o events.csv.zip "https://api.sharadar.com/v1.0/data/events?api_key=test-api-key&bulk=True"

Check the bulk file status (name, size, last modified) without downloading:
