Lookup Accession Number
Read-only1 parameter
What it does
Look up a filing or exhibit by its SEC accession number. Supports both dashed format (e.g., "0001193125-22-010026") and compact 18-digit format. Returns filing metadata including company name, form type, filing date, exhibit count and filingId (for get_filing_document / get_filing_exhibits).
If the filing is held in Signal8's archive (isInDatabase: true) its content can be read here; if it is only found on SEC EDGAR the response has isInDatabase: false and basic metadata only. For the full document list use get_filing_documents.
