Hi Randy,


I'd like to extract either specific data or the entire table from the Barcharts Most Active Options webpage.


https://www.barchart.com/options/most-active?page=all https://www.barchart.com/options/most-active?page=all



It appears that the table is dynamically built using a json call.


Is there a method for doing this with an smf function?


Alternatively, there is a csv download link for those with a Barcharts.com account, which I have. Is there any method for automating the download of this csv table into excel?


Thanks for any advice you can provide.


Peter

Let me take a look at it. The Barchart API just uses a "&list=" parameter
instead of the normal "&symbols=" parameter. I know of a handful of such
"&list" items. I think a (minor?) change to the
smfGetBarchartPortfolioView() function could process the "&list=" output.

For example, this is the API call that gets the JSON file:

https://core-api.barchart.com/v1/quotes/get?list=options.mostActive.us&fields=symbol%2ClastPrice%2CpriceChange%2CpercentChange%2CopenPrice%2ChighPrice%2ClowPrice%2Cvolume%2CtradeTime%2CdividendExDate%2Cdividend%2CnextEarningsDate%2CweightedAlpha%2CsymbolCode%2CsymbolType%2ChasOptions&meta=field.shortName%2Cfield.type%2Cfield.description&hasOptions=true&raw=1
