Retrieving MiFIR reporting files
Basically, MiFIR files are retrieved via the /files endpoint of the Investment API. The process of downloading data requires the following two steps:
Retrieving the signed download URL
The first API call triggers the creation of a unique download link within our cloud storage infrastructure.
The links are designed to be very difficult to guess, and contain a relatively short expiry time (15 minutes by default).
The second step is to use the returned URL to download the MiFIR file.
1. Retrieving the download URL
Call the Upvest /file sharing API endpoint by
GET /files/mifir_reports/MiFIR_reporting_files_YYYMMDD.zip
Please note that the file name convention must be adhered to in order to retrieve the correct MiFIR reporting files.
| URL Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
mifir_reports | The folder name for MiFIR reports. |
MiFIR_reporting_files | The requested file name. |
YYYYMMDD | The trading date for which the MiFIR report applies. |
