markets.quote

Returns structured instrument quotes and company financial data. Observation times, currencies and missing values are preserved; prices are observations, not guaranteed executable live quotes.

Operation: POST /v1/capabilities/markets.quote/execute
operationId: executeMarketsQuote
Typical credits: 4
Search deadline: 40 s server-side
Paging: single result
Availability: ConfiguredChecked 2026-09-23 21:02 UTC

Cost basis: $0.004 per quote refresh; cached details are free. Availability is reported per deployment by GET /v1/catalog (available). The timestamped snapshot describes configuration, not provider uptime or your account's enabled choices. Check the catalog with your own key before a call. Credits are explained under credits and limits.

Request

Body of POST /v1/capabilities/markets.quote/execute, JSON, validated against the MarketsQuoteRequest component of the public OpenAPI document. Defaults are applied server-side, so an omitted optional field behaves exactly as its default.

Examples

NVIDIA

curl

curl -s -X POST https://api.powerups-ai.store/v1/capabilities/markets.quote/execute \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AIPA_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"symbol":"NVDA:NASDAQ"}'

No recorded response is published for this capability yet. The envelope is the ExecuteResponse component (see sessions and records); the record keys below are what the adapter emits. A first call with the example above returns search_id, the records and the charge.

Result record

Every item in results[] carries record_id and title (contract, always present) and usually url and snippet. The keys below are the documented tier: produced deterministically by this capability, omitted when the source has no value, checked against recorded source fixtures in our test suite, and published as the MarketsQuoteRecord component (all optional, extra keys allowed) so generated clients type them. The wire schema itself still validates only the base keys. See stability tiers.

Record keys of markets.quote
Key	Type	Presence
symbol	string	always
exchange	string	when the source has it
price	number	when the source has it
currency	string	when the source has it
observed_at	string	when the source has it
change	object	when the source has it
source	string	always

Caveats

Details are served from the record stored at search time without a provider call. When that stored detail is no longer available the call returns 410 session_expired ("the cached record detail is no longer available. Run the search again."); it is never re-fetched.

Follow-ups

Paging: Single result; more is refused with 400 invalid_request.
Update: Refresh the instrument or change its time window. Params accept any subset of the request fields (MarketsQuoteUpdateParams). update is a billed refresh ($0.004): the quote is fetched again with the merged parameters.
Record actions:
- details: Cached company and instrument financial data.
Detail behaviour: Stored at search time; details is free and never calls the provider. details returns the stored quote at no charge.

record action

curl -s -X POST https://api.powerups-ai.store/v1/follow-up \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AIPA_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"record_id":"rec_…","action":"details"}'

Record detail objects of this capability are provider-shaped: documented by observation, not by schema. Full follow-up semantics: follow-up.

Typed client

With types generated from the public document (see types, client and samples) the call is path-keyed and the body is checked at compile time:

TypeScript (openapi-fetch)

const { data, error } = await client.POST("/v1/capabilities/markets.quote/execute", {
  body: {
    "symbol": "NVDA:NASDAQ"
  },
});
if (error) throw new Error(`${error.error.code}: ${error.error.message}`);
for (const record of data.results) console.log(record.record_id, record.title);
