Previous value: -"Company ticker symbol (e.g., \"AAPL\", \"VOO\"), name (e.g., \"Apple\"), or CIK number (e.g., \"320193\"). Ticker is the fastest lookup and works for equities, ETFs, and mutual funds; a multi-class share ticker resolves in either form (\"BRK-B\" or \"BRK.B\"). Name search matches current and former names, and the corporate suffix does not have to match the registry's form (\"Beacon Financial Corporation\" finds \"Beacon Financial Corp\") — but Corp, Inc, Co, and Ltd stay distinct from each other, since separate registrants differ only by which one they use."New value: +"Company ticker symbol (e.g., \"AAPL\", \"VOO\"), name (e.g., \"Apple\"), or CIK number (e.g., \"320193\").

The corporate suffix (Inc, Corp, Co, Ltd, PLC, LLC, LP, N.V., S.A., AG, SE) can be left off (\"Apple\" finds \"Apple Inc.\"; \"Rio Tinto\" lists both the Ltd and the PLC) or spelled out (\"Beacon Financial Corporation\" finds \"Beacon Financial Corp\"), but a suffix you include must match — Corp, Inc, Co, and Ltd stay distinct from each other, since separate registrants differ only by which one they use."

changedOutput schema / properties / dataset / description
Previous value: -"Canvas dataframe holding the full filtered filing history (recent + archive pages), registered only when the scan reached beyond the recent window and the history exceeds filing_limit.

changedOutput schema / properties / history_scanned_through / description
Previous value: -"Oldest filing date reached by the scan (YYYY-MM-DD).

Absent when no filings were scanned."New value: +"Oldest filing date the scan reached (YYYY-MM-DD); nothing older was examined.
