First of all, make sure you have installed the ImportFromWeb add-on from the Google Workspace Marketplace.

Then, just follow these easy steps:

Open a new Google Sheets and activate ImportFromWeb

To activate the add-on, go to Extensions > ImportFromWeb > Activate add-on.

Input the Yahoo Finance URLs

ImportFromWeb requires 2 parameters: a URL and one or more data selectors.

You can input the URLs directly or build them using the stock symbols: =”https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/”&A2 (where column A contains all your stock symbols).

Input Yahoo Finance URLs

Input the Yahoo Finance selectors

Data selectors describe the specific stock indicators you want to import from Yahoo Finance. 

Pick the selectors you are interested in from our Yahoo Finance selectors glossary and add them to your spreadsheet. For example, you may be interested in the dayLow, dayHigh, avgVolume, returnonEquity, and eps.

This is what your spreadsheet should look like:

Input Yahoo Finance selectors

Write the =IMPORTFROMWEB() function and extract the stock data

Just add this formula: =IMPORTFROMWEB(B2,C1:G1)

Within seconds, you’ll get the data for the first stock symbol.

Write IMPORTFROMWEB() function

Scale the collection process

After adding the $ symbol around the data selectors, drag the formula down to the last row: =IMPORTFROMWEB(B2,$C$1:$G$1)

Drag down to copy formula
