title: Yahoo finance webservice API
body: <p>I am trying to get realtime stock data from BSE and NSE using yahoo finance web-services. I was able to get some data using following URL</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://finance.yahoo.com/webservice/v1/symbols/COALINDIA.NS/quote?format=json
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But it gives me very limited information.</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>{
    "list": {
      "meta": {
        "type": "resource-list",
        "start": 0,
        "count": 1
      },
      "resources": [
        {
          "resource": {
            "classname": "Quote",
            "fields": {
              "name": "COAL INDIA LTD",
              "price": "367.649994",
              "symbol": "COALINDIA.NS",
              "ts": "1418895539",
              "type": "equity",
              "utctime": "2014-12-18T09:38:59+0000",
              "volume": "2826975"
            }
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I need more information like yearly high, low, last traded price etc. and I couldn't find any documentation related to this from yahoo where it details how to get more information.</p>
  
  <p>Is there documentation available related to these services? Or please suggest if there are any alternatives available.</p>
