# Fundamentals API Migration Guide

## 🚨 Important Changes

The single `/vX/reference/financials` endpoint has been **deprecated** and replaced with 6 specialized endpoints for better performance and more focused data access.

### What's Changed

| Old (Deprecated) | New (Recommended) |
|------------------|-------------------|
| `client.vx.list_stock_financials()` | **6 separate methods** (see below) |
| Single endpoint with complex filtering | Dedicated endpoints optimized for specific data types |
| Complex response structure | Streamlined, focused response models |

### New Fundamentals Endpoints

1. **Balance Sheets** β†’ `client.list_balance_sheets()`
2. **Cash Flow Statements** β†’ `client.list_cash_flow_statements()`
3. **Income Statements** β†’ `client.list_income_statements()`
4. **Financial Ratios** β†’ `client.list_financial_ratios()`
5. **Short Interest** β†’ `client.list_short_interest()`
6. **Short Volume** β†’ `client.list_short_volume()`

## Migration Examples

### Before (Deprecated)
```python
from polygon import RESTClient

client = RESTClient(api_key="your_api_key")

# Old way - deprecated
financials = client.vx.list_stock_financials(
ticker="AAPL",
timeframe="quarterly",
limit=10
)
```

### After (New)
### After (New)

```python
from polygon import RESTClient

client = RESTClient(api_key="your_api_key")

# New way - methods available directly on client (recommended)
balance_sheets = client.list_balance_sheets(
tickers="AAPL",
timeframe="quarterly",
limit=10
)

# Get cash flow statements
cash_flows = client.list_cash_flow_statements(
tickers="AAPL",
timeframe="quarterly",
limit=10
)

# Get income statements
income_statements = client.list_income_statements(
tickers="AAPL",
timeframe="quarterly",
limit=10
)

# Get financial ratios
ratios = client.list_financial_ratios(
ticker="AAPL",
limit=10
)

# Get short interest data
short_interest = client.list_short_interest(
ticker="AAPL",
limit=10
)

# Get short volume data
short_volume = client.list_short_volume(
ticker="AAPL",
limit=10
)

# Clean, direct access with powerful filter modifiers!

# Example with filter modifiers
balance_sheets = client.list_balance_sheets(
tickers="AAPL",
period_end_gte="2023-01-01", # From 2023 onwards
fiscal_year_lte=2024 # Up to 2024
)

# Advanced filtering for financial ratios
ratios = client.list_financial_ratios(
price_gt=100.0, # Stock price > $100
market_cap_gte=10000000000, # Market cap >= $10B
price_to_earnings_lt=25.0 # P/E ratio < 25
)

## Key Benefits of New API

## Complete Example

See `examples/rest/fundamentals_example.py` for a comprehensive example showing all endpoints.

## Backward Compatibility

The old `VXClient` is still available for backward compatibility but will show deprecation warnings:

```python
# Still works but shows warnings
financials = client.vx.list_stock_financials(ticker="AAPL")
```

**Migration Timeline:**
- βœ… **Now**: New fundamentals API available
- ⚠️ **Current**: Old API deprecated with warnings
- 🚫 **Future**: Old API will be removed

## Need Help?

- Check `examples/rest/fundamentals_example.py` for usage examples
- Review the API documentation at https://polygon.io/docs/
- All new endpoints follow the same patterns as existing Polygon APIs

# πŸŽ‰ New Fundamentals API Implementation!

## Summary

Successfully implemented the new Polygon Fundamentals API to replace the deprecated single `/vX/reference/financials` endpoint with 6 specialized endpoints.

## βœ… What Was Implemented

### 1. New Model Classes (`polygon/rest/models/fundamentals.py`)
- `BalanceSheet` - Balance sheet data model
- `CashFlowStatement` - Cash flow statement data model
- `IncomeStatement` - Income statement data model
- `FinancialRatios` - Financial ratios data model
- `ShortInterest` - Short interest data model
- `ShortVolume` - Short volume data model

### 2. New Client (`polygon/rest/fundamentals.py`)
- `FundamentalsClient` with 6 specialized methods:
- `list_balance_sheets()` β†’ `/stocks/financials/v1/balance-sheets`
- `list_cash_flow_statements()` β†’ `/stocks/financials/v1/cash-flow-statements`
- `list_income_statements()` β†’ `/stocks/financials/v1/income-statements`
- `list_financial_ratios()` β†’ `/stocks/financials/v1/ratios`
- `list_short_interest()` β†’ `/stocks/v1/short-interest`
- `list_short_volume()` β†’ `/stocks/v1/short-volume`

### 3. Integration (`polygon/rest/__init__.py`)
- Added `FundamentalsClient` to main `RESTClient`
- Available as `client.fundamentals`
- Maintains backward compatibility with `client.vx` (deprecated)

### 4. Deprecation Handling (`polygon/rest/vX.py`)
- Added deprecation warnings to old `VXClient`
- Clear migration guidance in warnings and docstrings

### 5. Documentation & Examples
- `FUNDAMENTALS_MIGRATION.md` - Complete migration guide
- `examples/rest/fundamentals_example.py` - Basic usage examples
- `examples/rest/fundamentals_advanced_filtering.py` - Advanced filtering & screening
- `examples/rest/fundamentals_modifiers_demo.py` - Filter modifier demonstrations
- `docs/source/Fundamentals.rst` - Complete API documentation
- Updated old examples with deprecation notices and migration guidance

## πŸš€ Usage

### New API (Recommended)
```python
from polygon import RESTClient

client = RESTClient(api_key="your_api_key")

# Methods available directly on client - clean and intuitive!
balance_sheets = client.list_balance_sheets(
tickers="AAPL",
timeframe="quarterly",
limit=10
)

# Get financial ratios
ratios = client.list_financial_ratios(
ticker="AAPL",
limit=5
)

# Clean, direct access - just like other Polygon API methods!
```

### Old API (Deprecated)
```python
# Still works but shows deprecation warnings
financials = client.vx.list_stock_financials(ticker="AAPL")
```

## πŸ” Key Benefits

1. **Performance**: Smaller, focused responses
2. **Clarity**: Dedicated endpoints for each data type
3. **Features**: Support for TTM data, better filtering
4. **Maintenance**: Easier to maintain and extend
5. **Type Safety**: Better IDE support and type checking

## βœ… Quality Assurance
