Overview
US Treasury Securities Outstanding Scraper
Scrape US Treasury securities outstanding data by date, up to a million records per run. Each row is a security with its issue date, maturity date, interest rate, and outstanding amount. No API key or login. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
The Treasury's official FiscalData API needs registration and rate limits, and it returns nested JSON that is hard to flatten. This Actor reads the public securities outstanding dataset directly, filters by record date, and returns each security as one flat row. You get the same data the Treasury publishes, ready for analysis.
| Who uses it | What they scrape US Treasury for |

| Quant researchers | Building yield curve models from outstanding issuance |
| Financial journalists | Tracking changes in Treasury issuance patterns |
| Risk managers | Assessing the supply of specific Treasury securities |
| Data engineers | Feeding Treasury data into internal dashboards |
What it does
This Actor collects US Treasury securities outstanding records for a given date range and returns each security as a flat row.
- 📅 Date filtering: set a start date and the Actor returns every security outstanding on or after that date.
- 🔢 Volume control: cap the run with maxItems, from a single security to a million.
- 📄 Flat rows: each security is one record with issue date, maturity date, rate, and amount.
- 💾 Multiple exports: download as CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML from the Apify dataset.
Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check your start date. If it is in the future or after the latest data, there will be no records. Try an earlier date, like 2020-01-01.
The run is slow or times out.
Lower maxItems or use a more recent start date. The Actor reads records sequentially, so a smaller range is faster.
I need more than a million securities.
Split your request into multiple runs with different start dates, then merge the datasets.
The output has too many columns.
The Actor returns all fields for each security. Use the Apify dataset export options to select columns, or process the CSV locally.
Can I filter by maturity date?
The Actor only filters by record date. Download the data and filter by maturity date in your own code.
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the source of this data? | The Actor reads the US Treasury's public securities outstanding dataset, the same data behind the Treasury's FiscalData API. |
| Do I need an API key or login? | No. The Actor accesses the public dataset directly, so there is no registration or authentication. |
| What does one row look like? | Each row is one Treasury security with fields like issue date, maturity date, interest rate, and outstanding amount. The exact fields are shown in the sample output. |
| Can I filter by security type, like bills or bonds? | The Actor filters by record date only. To filter by type, download the full dataset and filter locally, or use the Treasury's API for more granular queries. |
| How far back does the data go? | The dataset includes securities outstanding from many years back. Set a start date to collect only what you need. |
| What is the maximum number of securities I can get? | You can set maxItems up to 1,000,000 per run. If you need more, run the Actor multiple times with different date ranges. |
| Can I schedule this Actor to run automatically? | Yes. On Apify you can schedule runs daily, weekly, or at any interval, and get notified when new data is ready. |
| What formats can I export? | The dataset can be exported as CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML from the Apify console or API. |
| Is this data free? | The underlying Treasury data is public and free. You only pay for Apify platform usage if you exceed the free tier. |
| How is this different from the Treasury's FiscalData API? | The API requires registration and returns nested JSON. This Actor returns flat rows and needs no key, but it only filters by date, not by other fields. |
