Hi,

Will there be (is there?) a way of using the API somehow to set up the monitoring of document availability?

I know that with CHD I can monitor companies, but could there be a way of checking for the submission/download-availability of specific documents irrespective of which company filed them?

At present I have such (bespoke) monitor(s) set up via CH but would like to be able to do this without bothering them unnecessarily.

Cheers

Dan

We are currently working on an API which will stream events as they occur. One of these event streams is likely to be details of filings as they occur.

We do not have any firm release dates for the functionality but will publish on the forum once more concrete plans are developed.

Thanks

Mark.
