Reported and calculated values
Determine how every standardized value was produced and trace it back to its filing source.
Use metric_origins to classify each returned metric value. Do not infer origin from the metric name or from the catalog's general definition.
Metric origins
| Origin | Meaning |
|---|---|
reported | The standardized value is linked to a line item reported in a filing. |
derived_line_item | Rangler calculated the line item from other accounting values in the same logical period. |
derived_period | The period or value was assembled from other periods, such as a trailing-twelve-month series. |
unknown | The available source details cannot safely establish one of the preceding categories. |
Ratios are derived by definition. Their formulas and dependencies live in the versioned metric catalog. is_derived_period describes the period itself and is separate from a metric's origin.

}Source detail levels
Set include_sources=true to return a sources map keyed like metrics.
source_detail=referencereturns compact stable identifiers suitable for lists and cached views.source_detail=fullreturns the complete public evidence available for the selected metric, including derivation operands where applicable.
For a derived value, inspect its derivation and operand references rather than presenting one operand as though it were the reported source of the derived result.
Render evidence
Use source endpoints only after selecting a metric's returned source identifiers:
GET /v1/companies/{company_id}/statement-cells/{cell_id}/source
GET /v1/companies/{company_id}/statement-cells/{cell_id}/geometry
GET /v1/companies/{company_id}/statement-table-values/{value_id}/sourceSource renders return image/png. Geometry returns coordinates for highlighting the value in the filing page.
Restatements
is_restated=true means at least one value in the returned period came from a later filing's restated comparative. restated_metrics identifies exactly which metrics were restated. Do not label every value in the period as restated without checking that list.
Periods, derived quarters, and restatements
Store financial periods correctly across calendar and fiscal reporting, cumulative interim values, derived periods, and restated comparatives.
Income statement metrics
Standard income, expense, profit, and per-share metrics returned by Rangler financial statements.
