# List Exchanges

> Returns active Nordic stock exchanges, ordered alphabetically. Supports filtering by country.



## OpenAPI

````yaml https://nordicfinancialnews.com/openapi/v1/openapi.yaml get /api/v1/exchanges
openapi: 3.0.1
info:
  title: Nordic Financial News API
  version: v1.0
  description: >
    REST API for Nordic financial news. Each article is summarized in English
    (headline, short summary, and key points) with the original-language article
    linked via `article_url`. The full article body stays at the source.


    ## Authentication

    All endpoints require Bearer token authentication using an API key.

    Include the API key in the Authorization header:

    ```

    Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

    ```


    ## Rate Limiting

    The API enforces per-hour rate limits based on your plan:

    - **Free**: 100 requests/hour

    - **Pro**: 5,000 requests/hour


    Rate limit information is included in response headers:

    - `X-RateLimit-Limit`: Maximum requests per hour

    - `X-RateLimit-Remaining`: Requests remaining

    - `X-RateLimit-Reset`: Seconds until limit resets

    - `X-RateLimit-Policy`: Human-readable rate limit policy (e.g. `5000 per
    hour; token bucket`)


    The `/health` endpoint is exempt from rate limiting and does not return rate
    limit headers.


    ## Monthly Usage Limits

    Free and Plus keys have a fixed monthly allowance that resets at the start
    of each

    calendar month:

    - **Free**: 100 requests/month

    - **Plus**: 100 requests/month


    Responses on these plans include:

    - `X-Monthly-Limit`: Maximum requests for the current month

    - `X-Monthly-Remaining`: Requests remaining this month

    - `X-Monthly-Reset`: ISO 8601 timestamp when the allowance resets


    When the allowance is exceeded, the API returns `429 Too Many Requests` with
    a `Retry-After` header.


    Pro has no hard limit. It includes 25,000 requests per billing cycle, with
    usage-based

    pricing beyond that, so requests are never blocked. Responses on Pro
    include:

    - `X-Monthly-Usage`: Requests used in the current billing cycle

    - `X-Monthly-Reset`: ISO 8601 timestamp when the current billing cycle ends


    A Pro billing cycle follows your subscription's billing period, which begins
    on the

    date you subscribed and is not necessarily a calendar month. Usage is
    counted by day,

    so the first day of a billing cycle is counted in full.


    ## Caching

    The API supports HTTP caching with ETags. Include the `If-None-Match`

    header with the ETag from a previous response to receive a 304 Not Modified

    response if the data hasn't changed.


    ## Pagination

    List endpoints support cursor-based pagination. Use the `cursor` parameter

    with the value from `pagination.next_cursor` in the response to fetch the
    next page.

    Paginated responses also include a `Link` header with `rel="next"` pointing
    to the next page URL.


    ## Incremental Sync

    To keep a local copy current, poll `updated_after` — not `published_after`.


    1. Request `?updated_after=<your last completed sync>`.

    2. Results are ordered by `updated_at` ascending and cursor-paginated.

    3. Follow `pagination.next_cursor`, resending the same `updated_after`,
    until it is `null`.

    4. Only then store the time the sync started, minus a small overlap, as your
    new
       watermark. A minute is plenty.

    Step 3 matters: a response is capped at `limit` (default 25, max 100), so a
    changed set

    larger than one page arrives across several. Advancing your watermark before
    draining

    every page skips the remainder.


    The overlap in step 4 matters for the same reason: a record's `updated_at`
    is set when

    the write happens, but it only becomes visible when that write commits a
    moment later.

    Without an overlap a record can be stamped just before your watermark and
    land just

    after it, and you would never ask for it again. Re-reading a minute of
    changes is

    cheap and idempotent.


    `published_at` is editorial time — when the news happened, not when the
    record reached

    this API — so a record can appear with a `published_at` older than one you
    already hold.

    Records are re-sent when they change, so reconcile by `id`.


    Removals are not signalled: an article withdrawn from the feed simply stops
    being

    returned. Incremental sync tells you what changed, not what disappeared, so
    treat a

    local mirror as append-and-update rather than an exact replica.


    ## Error Handling

    Errors follow the RFC 9457 Problem Details format with appropriate HTTP
    status codes.
