Get Index Real-Time Data
OpenAPI JSON Spec Retrieve real-time data for a specified stock index symbol. Returns simplified data with symbol, date, and price (close price).
Response Data Structure
data(RealTimeData): Real-time index data
RealTimeData fields:
symbol(string): Index symbol (e.g., “^SPX”, “^DJI”)date(string): Quote time as an RFC3339 UTC timestamp, e.g. “2026-08-04T13:26:49Z” — the same convention astime_period_starton the kline endpoints. When FMP has no live quote and the prior session’s stored close is served instead, the date is that session’s day at “2026-08-03T00:00:00Z” — a 00:00:00 time identifies the session, it is not the moment the market closed.price(float): Latest quoted price
Note: The price is the latest available quote. When the market is closed it is the last quote of the prior session; some feeds are delayed at source (see the quote time). When FMP has no quote for the symbol, the API returns an empty data structure with default values: {"symbol": "", "date": "", "price": 0}.
