Alpha Vantage provides free APIs for real-time and historical financial data, including stock time series, technical indicators, and more.
Alpha Vantage provides free APIs for real-time and historical financial data, including stock time series, technical indicators, and more. On Nagent, Alpha Vantage is exposed as a fully-configurable analytics integration that any agent can call — 56 actions, and API key authentication. No code is required to wire Alpha Vantage into your workflow — connect it once via the External Integrations panel and reuse it across every agent you build.
Agent builders use Alpha Vantage to automate the kinds of tasks analytics teams previously handled manually. Concrete examples — each one is a single agent step in Nagent — include:
Every action and trigger is paired with a structured input/output schema (visible in the sections below), so when you wire Alpha Vantage into Helix — our agentic agent builder — the editor knows exactly what each step expects and produces. Configure once, deploy anywhere across your Nagent agents.
Every operation an agent can call against Alpha Vantage, with input parameters and output schema. Drop these into any step of an agent built in Helix.

ALPHA_VANTAGE_TIME_SERIES_INTRADAYTool to retrieve intraday OHLCV for a given equity. Use when you need high-frequency pricing data within the trading day. Always inspect the JSON response body for 'Information' or 'Error Message' fields — the API may return these instead of data even on HTTP 200.
Input parameters
Specific month in 'YYYY-MM' format for historical intraday data; only for intraday intervals Very old dates may return no data; intraday history coverage is limited.
The stock ticker symbol. For US stocks, use the ticker only (e.g., 'IBM', 'MSFT', 'AAPL'). For international stocks, append the exchange suffix: '.LON' for London Stock Exchange (e.g., 'TSCO.LON'), '.TRT' for Toronto Stock Exchange (e.g., 'SHOP.TRT'), '.DEX' for XETRA Germany (e.g., 'MBG.DEX'), '.BSE' for Bombay Stock Exchange (e.g., 'RELIANCE.BSE'), '.SHH' for Shanghai Stock Exchange (e.g., '600104.SHH'), '.SHZ' for Shenzhen Stock Exchange (e.g., '000002.SHZ'). Do not pass URLs - just the ticker symbol itself.
Return split/dividend-adjusted values ('true') or raw as-traded values ('false')
Response format: 'json' (default) or 'csv' Response structure differs significantly between 'json' and 'csv' — ensure parsing logic matches the selected format.
Time interval between data points Accepted values: '1min', '5min', '15min', '30min', '60min' only.
Return latest 100 points ('compact') or full-length data ('full') Free-tier keys may return an 'Information' block instead of data when 'full' is requested.
Include pre/post-market data ('true') or only regular hours ('false')

No publicly available marketplace agent is found using this tool yet. There are 99 agents privately built on Nagent that already use Alpha Vantage.
Build on Nagent
Connect Alpha Vantage to any Nagent agent in minutes — no API key management, no boilerplate. Just configure and deploy.
The five questions agent builders ask before adopting a new integration.
Open the External Integrations panel inside Nagent (app.nagent.ai/externalIntegration), find Alpha Vantage, and click "Connect Now." You'll authenticate with an API key — Nagent handles credential storage and refresh automatically. Once connected, Alpha Vantage is available to any agent in your workspace.
No. Nagent provides no-code integration for every tool. Once Alpha Vantage is connected, you configure its 56 actions directly in the agent builder UI — no API calls, no boilerplate, no schema management.
Helix — Nagent's agentic agent builder — lets you drop Alpha Vantage steps into any workflow visually. Pick an action (e.g., one of those listed above), fill in the inputs (Helix knows the required vs. optional schema for each parameter), and connect it to upstream/downstream steps. Triggers run as the entry point of an agent, so when a Alpha Vantage event fires, the agent kicks off automatically.
Every Alpha Vantage action and trigger ships with a fully-typed schema — input parameters with name, type, required flag, and description, plus the output payload shape. The schemas are documented in the sections above. Helix uses these schemas to validate your configuration at build time and to type-check the data flowing between steps.
Yes. While Alpha Vantage ships with 56 pre-built analytics actions, you can layer custom logic around them inside Helix — pre/post-processing steps, conditional branches, retries, or stitching Alpha Vantage together with other connected tools.
