API Enterprise

Live intraday short interest for every covered stock in a region, as of one instant. Pass at (or omit it for now) and, for every stock with live coverage, the response carries the intraday short-interest estimate in effect at that instant, with the full instrument identity block so it joins straight onto your security master.

This is the region-wide companion to the per-stock intraday timeseries. Built for enterprise consumers: the response is uncharged (no credits).

How each row is built

Each row is enriched exactly like the daily regional short-interest snapshot: the identifiers, free float and USD value come from the latest daily close on or before the UTC date of at, and the intraday estimate in effect at at is scaled onto that basis. For a historical at this is the close of that same UTC day when it has been published, not the previous session. The market-cap filters use the latest market cap when at is omitted, and the market cap as of that daily close otherwise.

Filtering

• market_cap: Comma-separated market-cap bands: nano, micro, small, mid, large, mega.
• market_cap_min / market_cap_max: Explicit market-cap bounds, in millions of USD.

Confidence bounds, days to cover and split ratio are not available intraday and are not included. Share counts are adjusted to today's terms.
