    • Rich coverage for reading, writing, and querying your Polygon.io data, across all 60 of its actions.
  2. Managed auth

    • Built in OAuth with automatic token refresh and rotation.
    • One place to manage, scope, and revoke Polygon.io access.
    • Per user and per environment credentials instead of shared keys.
  3. Agent optimized design

    • Actions are tuned from real success and error rates so reliability climbs over time.

Frequently asked questions

Ceven implements a smart queuing system that respects your specific Polygon.io plan limits. If you are on a free tier, the agent automatically paces requests to avoid the common five calls per minute limit which would otherwise cause workflow failures. For paid tiers, the agent uses a dynamic concurrency model that maximizes throughput while monitoring for 429 status codes. If a rate limit is hit, Ceven employs an exponential backoff strategy, pausing the workflow and retrying the request after the required cooldown period. This ensures that your data pipelines remain stable even during periods of high market volatility when many workflows may trigger simultaneously.
Yes. Ceven treats all asset classes provided by Polygon.io as first class citizens within the same workflow. You can build a logic gate that checks the RSI of a stock like Microsoft and the price action of Bitcoin in a single sequence. The agent handles the different ticker formats required for each asset class automatically. For example, it knows to use the stock symbol for equities and the specific currency pair format for crypto or forex. This allows you to build complex cross asset correlation strategies where a move in one market triggers a data pull or alert in another without needing separate integrations.
Ceven primarily interacts with the REST API for discrete workflow steps, but it can be configured to trigger workflows based on price alerts that mimic real time behavior. While the agent does not maintain a persistent open WebSocket connection for every user, it can poll endpoints at high frequency or integrate with your own webhook listeners. When a specific price target or technical indicator is hit, the agent kicks off the subsequent automation steps. This approach prevents the resource exhaustion that occurs with thousands of open sockets while still providing the low latency response times needed for modern financial automation and alerting.
When the agent calls a ticker endpoint and receives a 404 or an empty response, it does not simply fail the workflow. Instead, Ceven triggers a fallback search using the Get All Tickers tool to find the closest match or verify if the symbol has changed due to a merger or acquisition. If no match is found, the agent logs a specific data gap error and can be configured to notify you via Slack or email. This prevents a single invalid ticker from breaking a bulk processing loop, allowing the agent to skip the problematic asset and continue processing the rest of your portfolio.
Absolutely. You can set up a recurring workflow that runs weekly or monthly to pull the Get Dividends endpoint for a list of tickers in your portfolio. Ceven can then compare these results against a previous snapshot stored in your database or spreadsheet. If a new dividend is announced or a payment date is shifted, the agent can automatically calculate the projected income and update your financial dashboard. It can also cross reference the dividend yield with the current price to alert you when a stock reaches a specific yield threshold that meets your investment criteria.
Ceven accesses the pre calculated technical indicators provided by Polygon.io, such as SMA, EMA, RSI, and MACD. This means the agent does not have to pull thousands of raw price candles and calculate the math locally, which significantly reduces latency and token usage. You simply tell the agent which indicator you need and the timespan you are interested in. The agent then pulls the precise value and can use it in a conditional statement. For example, if the RSI is below thirty, the agent can move the workflow to a buy signal state and draft an order.
The amount of historical data available depends entirely on your Polygon.io subscription tier. While the API supports years of data, some free or basic plans have limits on how far back you can query for certain endpoints. Ceven will report the exact error returned by the API if you attempt to pull data outside your permitted window. To avoid this, we recommend checking your plan permissions in the Polygon.io dashboard. If you have a professional plan, the agent can walk through paginated results to build comprehensive historical datasets for long term backtesting or trend analysis.
Ceven uses the Get Market Holidays and Get Market Status tools to make your workflows time aware. Instead of running a trade check on a Sunday or a federal holiday when markets are closed, the agent checks the current status first. If the market is closed, the agent can either pause the workflow until the next open or skip the execution entirely to avoid errors from the exchange. This is particularly useful for scheduled reports that should only run when fresh daily data is actually available, ensuring your analytics are based on real trading days.
