Getting Started¶
From the API documenation:
The IEX API is a set of services designed for developers and engineers. It can be used to build high-quality apps and services. We’re always working to improve the IEX API. Please check back for enhancements and improvements.
- Read the terms.
- Read the manual and start building.
- Attribute properly.
The API terms apply to the use of this module, as does the requirement to properly attribute the use of IEX data.
