# Google Finance Historical Data API

Get historical price and volume data for a financial instrument. Supports various time ranges from 1 day to maximum available, or custom date ranges with daily, weekly, or monthly intervals. Use [Search Financial Instruments](/docs/google-finance-api/google_finance_search) to resolve a symbol and exchange, pair this with the [Google Finance quote API](/docs/google-finance-api/google_finance_quote) for current ticker details, or use [Intraday Graph Data](/docs/google-finance-api/google_finance_intraday) for minute-level charts.
