XBRL Filed Data review
A free utility for filtering public filing data in Excel, Google Sheets, or REST API queries.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
XBRL Filed Data is a spreadsheet add-in from XBRL US, Inc. for querying and extracting XBRL-formatted public filing data. It is aimed at people analyzing company filings and structured financial information, including users who want to work in Excel or Google Sheets. Rather than managing an organization’s accounting, it provides a way to select filing data and bring results into a spreadsheet or query it through an API.
The spreadsheet add-in supports Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets. Users can filter queries by company, concept, time period, or filing, then populate spreadsheet results. For API workflows, REST endpoints cover filing, fact, concept, and relationship data, with options to apply filters and select returned fields. This makes the product relevant when spreadsheet analysis or custom API queries are the goal; it is not a substitute for a finance-management system with bank-feed synchronization, approvals, or automation rules.
XBRL Filed Data is free, and the add-in uses authenticated credentials to connect to XBRL US data. Its cloud delivery and web and API platforms suit people working with public filing information across spreadsheets or integrations. The stated audience spans solo users through enterprise, but support is community-based. Choose it for focused access to structured filings in familiar spreadsheet tools or via REST; look elsewhere if you need accounting operations, transaction management, or workflow controls rather than filing data.
