Hello all,

Is it possible to run a predefined Options Scanner using the Python API? Web searches on this topic came up short, so I thought I'll post on this forum full of smart, ingenious folks :)

Thank you in advance!

Sorry @cooldyood the process of just getting the API permissions makes it so this is not a robust topic of conversation.
TOS support would be your best bet.

Providing info for the group's benefit - you can create alerts for ToS scanners and have it send notifications to your email. Then write Python code to search your email, parse the alert notifications and extract whatever it is you're looking for.

I have set this cycle to be run hourly, which works well for my purposes.
