  docs, the API FAQ, and live probes of the api3.exchange-data.com host on 2026-07-22.
summary:
  types: [apiKey]

  oauth2_flows: []
schemes:
- name: LicenseKey
  type: apiKey
  in: header
  parameter: Authorization
  description: Production license key sent in the Authorization header. Per the API
    FAQ, "Upon registration the Prod License key will be enabled from day 1" - users
    register on the developer portal and use the production key when integrating.
    All 24 API products on the shared api3.exchange-data.com base require it; access
    to each product is gated by per-product subscription.
  evidence:
  - probe: GET https://api3.exchange-data.com/GetLatestEODPrices?MIC=USCOMP&format=json
      (no Authorization header)
    result: 'HTTP 401 {"error": "Authorization field missing"}'
  - probe: 'GET with header Authorization: Bearer notatoken'
    result: 'HTTP 403 {"error": "Access to this API has been disallowed"}'

  notes: Self-serve registration on the EDI Developer portal grants an account, access
    to the API Playground, and a production license key from day 1; individual API
    products require a subscription.
