[1]Using Request to Download Financial Data | Irreal:

    Sebastian Schweer has a nice post on using the [2]request package to
    [3]query an online financial service and download current stock
    quotes. That data is placed in an Org table along with certain
    historical data (such as purchase date and original cost) and used
    to calculate the current value of his stock holdings. The table can,
    of course, be exported to produce a nicely formatted report.

    This post is similar to the [4]one by Charl Botha that I [5]wrote
    about previously. If you need to programmatically retrieve data from
    a restful website, you should carefully study these two posts. They
    show how to use the request package and then parse out the data.
    Sadly, I haven't had a need to use these techniques but I'm really
    looking forward to when I do. Request, let-list, and the rest are
    tools that I'm dying to try out.

  This is pretty cool. I can see using this in my iOS workflows &
  automation as well.
