Overview

US Treasury Auctions Scraper

Scrape US Treasury auction announcements for bills, notes, bonds, TIPS, and FRNs, up to a million per run. Every auction comes with its security type, announcement and auction dates, maturity, and raw details. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

The Treasury publishes auction data on TreasuryDirect as a quarterly schedule and individual press releases, but there is no consolidated query API for developers. This actor reads the structured public feed for you, filters by security type and date, and returns each auction in a clean, flat row. It is built for analysts who need the Treasury calendar as data, not as a PDF.

Who uses it What they scrape US Treasury Auctions for
Fixed-income analysts Build a continuous feed of upcoming Treasury supply to model yield curve shifts.
Quantitative researchers Study the relationship between auction schedules and secondary-market liquidity.
Treasury operations teams at banks Populate internal calendars with official announcement, auction, and settlement dates.

What it does

This Actor collects US Treasury auction announcements by security type and start date, and returns each one as a flat row.

  • ๐Ÿ“… Date-filtered runs: Set a start date to collect only auctions announced from that day forward, keeping your dataset free of stale records.
  • ๐Ÿท๏ธ Security type filter: Target only Bills, Notes, Bonds, TIPS, FRNs, or CMBs, or leave it blank to capture every security type in one run.
  • ๐Ÿ“ฆ Scalable collection: Pull up to a million auctions per run, enough for years of historical data in a single execution.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

What you can do with US Treasury Auctions data

๐Ÿ“ˆ Model Treasury supply.

A fixed-income strategist runs the actor weekly, filtering for Notes and Bonds, to feed gross issuance volumes into a supply-demand model.

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Automate the dealing-room calendar.

A bank's Treasury desk triggers the actor each morning with a start date of today, pulling the announcement and auction dates for all upcoming Bills and CMBs into an internal Google Sheet.

๐Ÿ” Reconstruct auction history.

A PhD researcher sets the maxItems to 500,000 and the start date to 2000-01-01, collecting two decades of auction announcements for a paper on auction cycle regularities.

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Your start date may be in the future, or the security type you selected has no auctions announced on or after that date. Try an earlier start date and leave the security type set to 'Any' to confirm data is flowing.

The actor returns fewer auctions than I set in maxItems.

maxItems is a ceiling, not a target. It means 'up to this many.' If only 15 auctions match your filters, you get 15 rows.

Why is the maturity date missing on some rows?

Some auction announcements are released before the exact maturity date is finalized. The field will be empty until the Treasury publishes it.

Can I get real-time results?

The actor reads the public feed as it exists at run time. If you need updates within minutes of an announcement, schedule a frequent run cycle via the Apify scheduler.

I need auction results, not announcements.

This actor targets the announcement schedule. Auction results are a separate data release. You can use an Apify integration to chain this actor with a second scraper that fetches result pages once the auction has settled.

FAQ

Question Answer
Where does the data come from? The actor reads the public TreasuryDirect auction announcement feed, the same data used to populate the official Treasury calendar.
What is the difference between this and the TreasuryDirect PDF calendar? The PDF calendar is a human-readable quarterly schedule. This actor returns every auction as a machine-readable row with individual announcement, auction, and issue dates, ready for analysis.
Can I get only TIPS auctions? Yes. Set the security type filter to TIPS and the actor returns only TIPS auctions. The same pattern works for Bills, Notes, Bonds, FRNs, and CMBs.
How far back can I scrape? You can set any start date you like. If the public feed still carries auctions from that period, the actor will return them.
Does it capture auction results or announcements? It collects the announced auction details. Results like stop-out yields and bid-to-cover ratios are released separately and are not in the announcement feed.
What is a CMB? A Cash Management Bill. It is a short-dated instrument the Treasury uses for temporary cash needs. The actor treats it as a separate security type so you can isolate it.
Can I schedule this to run every morning? Yes. Use the Apify scheduler to run the actor daily with a start date of today, and it will pick up any newly posted auctions.
Do I need a TreasuryDirect account? No. The actor reads the public announcement data, which does not require an account or login.
What export formats are supported? Dataset exports include CSV, JSON, Excel, and XML. You can also push results to a webhook or cloud storage via an Apify integration.
