Changelog

Release notes for the Tickerdata add-on and data platform — new attributes, fixes, and changes, release by release.

Every notable change to the Tickerdata add-on and its data platform, newest first. Format follows Keep a Changelog: each release lists what was added, changed, fixed, and removed.

v2.2 Latest

Dividend History

Added

  • Dividend History is now documented in the Attribute Explorer. =TICKERDATA(symbol, "Dividend") with no time period returns the company’s entire dividend record as a table — one row per payment, with the ex-dividend, record, declaration and payment dates, the amount, the split-adjusted amount, the yield at the time, and the payment frequency. Add a year for that year’s total, or a year and quarter for a single payment. This has always worked; it simply was not written down anywhere.

Changed

  • Last Dividend now explains what it actually returns: the total dividends per share paid over the last twelve months, not the most recent single payment. For a company paying quarterly that is the last four payments combined, so it is several times larger than any one payment. The value itself is unchanged — only the documentation is clearer.

Fixed

  • Documented a known issue: "TTM" on Dividend History is not accurate for monthly, semi-annual, or annual payers, because it adds up the last four payment records rather than the last twelve months. A fix is coming in an upcoming patch. Use =TICKERDATALIVE(symbol, "Last Dividend") for a correct twelve-month total in the meantime.
v2.1

Earnings Announcement Restored

Fixed

  • =TICKERDATALIVE(symbol, "Earnings Announcement") works again. It was removed in v2.0 and is now served from our earnings calendar. See it in the Attribute Explorer.

Changed

  • Earnings Announcement now returns the date on its own (2026-07-30) instead of a full timestamp (2026-07-30T20:00:00.000+0000). Formulas that read the time portion to tell whether a report lands before or after market close no longer work — that detail is no longer available. Ordinary date use is unchanged; the value is still text, so wrap it in DATEVALUE() for date math.
  • When a ticker has no scheduled earnings date, Earnings Announcement now returns an error instead of a past date, so a stale value can’t be mistaken for an upcoming report.
v2.0

Stable API Migration

We’ve rebuilt Tickerdata on our new stable API — an upgrade that makes the data layer more consistent, succinct, and accurate. Nearly everything is backward compatible — if you use one of the few removed attributes below, the migration guide walks you through the fixes in four steps.

Added

  • 50+ new attributes across every category — EBIT, free cash flow to firm & equity, DuPont factors (taxBurden, interestBurden), capital-lease line items, net debt issuance breakdowns, cash conversion & operating cycles, solvency and coverage ratios, treasury stock, and more. Browse them (teal New pill) in the Attribute Explorer.
  • This changelog and the Stable API Migration Guide.

Changed

  • Many attributes gained clearer canonical names — for example peRatio renamed to priceToEarningsRatio and roe renamed to returnOnEquity. Old names keep working indefinitely; no removal is scheduled. Full list in the migration guide.
  • Exchange Short Name now returns full exchange names ("NASDAQ Global Select" instead of "NASDAQ"). Formulas comparing against short codes need updating — no error is raised.
  • The Attribute Explorer documents one canonical name per concept; legacy and duplicate names are searchable as aliases.

Fixed

  • "TTM" values for grossProfitRatio, operatingIncomeRatio, incomeBeforeTaxRatio, netIncomeRatio, and ebitdaRatio were inflated roughly 4× (quarterly percentages were summed). They are now computed correctly.
  • Five growth attributes that never returned data now work: ebitGrowth, epsGrowth, epsDilutedGrowth, rdExpenseGrowth, sgaExpenseGrowth.
  • TTM lookups now resolve attribute aliases the same way annual lookups do.

Removed

  • Attributes removed in v2.0 (all others are unaffected):
