In this video, I will show you how to pull live dividend data into your google sheets portfolio tracker. If you have messed around with google sheets you may already know about the google finance function. And if you know about that you also know you cannot pull dividend data from it which is the dumbest thing on Google's part. Like, come on Google. You are a multi-billion dollar company and you cant let us pull dividend data??
Anyway, there's a nice workaround to that by pulling from Finviz which I will show you how to in the first half of the video. But that will only get you so far. One thing Finviz does not have is the Ex-Dividend Date, which a lot of people want to know when that date it, so you know when they need to invest to get the next dividend payment. After a lot of research, I was able to find a way to pull the ex-dividend date so from a place outside of google finance and Finviz. Make sure to watch this video to find out!
**Finviz code update** In the video my I'm pulling from table 9, but now it is from Table 7.
- The codes below have been updated so you shouldn't have a problem
- for company name you need to pull from Google Finance now.
- The code for the company name is also updated below!
Pulling from Finviz:
=(substitute(index(IMPORTHTML("finviz.com/quote.ashx?t="&C6,"table", 7),8,2),"*",""))*1
Pulling the Ex-Dividend Date:

No...You rock!!! This was so easy. I read over 20 blogs and the steps were so out there. You made it so easy! Thank you and I hit "Subscribe."
Super useful. Much better than similar videos because you go through the formula so clearly. Subscribed!
Great tips man! Having it all in documentation is great to see and track those dividends!
This is amazing. I’ve been trying to do this for months and was completely stuck on it. I can’t wait to incorporate this into my spreadsheet. Thank you.
You're welcome!
you saved my life. I've been trying to figure this out all day and you helped me in 5 mins. You rock
Super Cool! Just followed all your steps and got what i needed. More blessings to you.
I cant thank you enough for making this video. I was trying to figure this out for many hours. 5 stars for your content.
Thank you. I tried multiple things, but your solution is simple and works perfectly
Pretty useful! I was looking for this solutions for months...Thanks! Subscribed
Dude!!, this was epic and helpful beyond words. I'm working on a dividend stock screener/tracker and this is perfect.
I wish I could like this 100 times! You've earned a subscription from me. I can put this into a dividend calendar and it will tell me where to concentrate my money every month so I maximise the dividend payout instead of spreading it everywhere at the same time. This will boost my dividends snowball! Thank you so so much!
Thanks, this was great! I saw your last video about pulling the dividend amount, and I couldn't get the formula to work. I used this one, adjusting row, column, and my personal spreadsheet cell, and it works great. Awesome!
Thanks! And glad it works for you!
Thanks brother. You have made my life much much much easier now!!. Super love your video here. Thank you so much for the info and looking forward to seeing more of your videos here! Cheers
made personal sheet in 2015 and for the life of me couldnt accomplish or find solution till now, many many thx, hats off to you.....cheers
Thanks a lot. I saw it on a blog, but with a vidéo, this is day better ! 👌🏻👍🏻
you're awesome, huge thanks for all your hard work in sharing your wisdom
I copied and pasted your revised function. I get an error: "Function ERROR parameter 2 value is 8. Valid values are between 0 and 1 inclusive." Any correction to this?
EXCELLENT THANKS ,INFORMATIVE AND ACTULLY WORKS, REAL JOY!!!
You went hard on this video and thanks for the updated code it was exactly what I needed. Thank you sir
thank you so much! this was so helpful, cant thank you enough!
Thanks for the code. If anyone is getting a REF error, please update table number to 7 and the issue will be resolved. The table number is updated since this video was uploaded.
thanks man, literally came back because of that
I am still getting error loading data...
It says “parameter 2 value is 8. Valid values are between 0 and 2.”
Table number is 9 now.

This is very helpful, thank you!
Thanks for the video. Very helpful and easy to follow.
***FINVIZ UPDATE*** Hey everyone! Finviz likes to change around its backend code and the table we are pulling from will change every now and then. When I made this video the table we were pulling from was table 9. Now it changed to table 7! If your code doesn't work its because they changed around the tables, but it is usually a very easy fix!
Hi, how can we figure out the table number?
Yay having a hard time getting the correct table number
I don't see how you can tell the table number for the chart? How do you know it is say table 7 vs table 8 or 1 for that matter, Thanks. Love the instruction!!
Great question and unfortunately I don't have an answer to it. Not sure if anyone does yet! It's all trial and error! I've had several of my coder friends try to figure it out too and nothing. But its been table 8 for a while now so hopefully it stays that way!
Ok... yes, EX-Dividend date is the hardest one, and it became even harder for me...wonder if you have some code or formula to fix this?
Here it is:
Seems like the YAHOO Finance tables don’t follow a pattern in terms of the information available.... meaning that the same cell either has different data if dividend information is not available, so they fill it with other stats.
As a result when I export to my sheet, some numbers are correct (ex. 44721), some are from other data (ex. 0.00634) and some give you and N/A error message because the cell has no data...
The challenge is: how to filter ONLY the data that has numbers like 44127 (which will yield the correct date when converted) and just display a “-“ character for either an error message or any number not resembling 44286 for example
I hope I didn’t confuse you too much, but your help would be much appreciated
exactly what I needed. Thank u so much !
Thanks for the video. It took me some tries to make the code work, but I finally did it today.
Thats awesome, glad it works for you!
You are a god send. I have been looking for this information! Thanks
Man u r genius, I have been looking for this forever!
Amazing work! Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
This is awesome man, thank you so much!
As of April 21, 2023 it's Table 10.
Thank you
As of 6/20/2024, it’s still Table 10
thanks you, very useful material !!

Hi, Just watched your video. This is amazing, you used hidden techniques to get this data. Thank you for making this video.
My pleasure, glad you liked it!
You are the man for my spreadsheet nightmare. Subscribed! Thanks and take care
Thanks for the sub!
Wow - that is so cool.
Thank you.
This was helpful, thank you. Can you advise how i determine what the table number is if i choose a different html website ?
Wow! Awesome dude. Thanks a lot. Learned a lot again. Works not for all stocks but still a big help. Doesn't work for a stock like UBS f.e.
Very helpful video, "Subscribed". Hoping to learn a lot from this channel.
Great video. Thanx for the guidance. Gonna subscribe to the channel

You're so right. I just couldn't get the importxml function to work with Yahoo Finance data. A mega mega mega thanks.
Thanks Nikhil, that worked!
You are a genius. I don't know how to thank you!
Great explanation, thanks a lot. Can we do this with MSFT Excel?
Amazing. Thanks!
Thanks for the very valuable information. Is there any way formula for getting Dividend Payout Date.
AYO NO CAP THIS WAS MAD HELPFUL, I ALWAYS WONDERED HOW PEOPLE GET THE DATE OMG TYSM TYSM TYSM TYS
This is awesome!
Great video! Do you think you could reverse engineer this to pull the stocks that have an ex-dividend date within a certain date range?
Excellent!
Thanks 🙏🏻
You're welcome!
Thank you, nice
thanks so much
Hey man, this was a great video. Can you also make a video on pay dates? Thanks so much man
How do you know what number to plug in for the table that will be pulled from finviz? Not the rows and columns but the actual table.
I'm also having an issue where it is telling me I can only use numbers 0 or 1 for rows and columns. Thanks so much!
Fantastic video. I tried and all these work great. Only issue is that it takes a long time to load the data esp for symbols like AAPL. JNJ, GSK and ARKK. Thanks.
excellent content
Thanks!
Any idea on a data source for ASX stocks? Thank you!
I am teacher and I am telling you...you can teach! Keep making videos! Do you have any videos on how to do covered calls, if you already own 100 shares of a stock?
Thanks! And not yet but thats a good idea for a video!
In the formula you provide to Copy the sell is not the correct one "C6" intead off "A2"
Great job
great vid. Yahoo doesn't post ex div for ETFS
exactly what i was looking for (ex dividend date)
Thanks for this. I’m trying to pull divided payments date into Google sheets. Any idea what that formula would be? Thanks
How do you know that it's table 9 on finviz? What if they change their site up? How would we find that?
Also is there a way to do this for mutual funds for trackings sake
Good work!
You mentioned payday, whereas the Ex-dividend date is not actually the pay date, it is the date you have to be invested in the underlying, to get paid on the actual pay date. Just to clarify.
Thanks for your work!
I guess the tables have been changed again as the link no longer works. in native Windows, the options for selecting tables is available, but not in the Mac version 365, much to my dismay.
Yes,...you are right......
I have a problem with the exdate. Idk what I have done wrong but I am getting a "loading" error and no result....
😊 thanks
Got a #REF error when trying it first, but I corrected it by typing 8 instead of 9 (the one that goes after "table", ). In case someone else had the same problem ;)
Talking about the first Dividend Yield formula.
thanks man, got the same thing
Thank you,was getting the same problem
does it still run? can you copy the formula in here? for me it doesnt run with 9 and 8 and other numbers. TY
@@Razorhead12345 same
Did u find the solution?
This was very helpful, thanks. Just one question, How as the finviz table identified as 9? I don't see a numbering system. Your help is appreciated.
Glad you liked it and currently finviz is pulling from table 8. They had a major update to their page a few months back but luckily it has been at table 8 for a while now. And honestly it was trial and error figuring out the table!
Any suggestions on how you found the 'table number'? You said - this is table 9 but not sure how you figured that out.
Hi I cannot get the asterixis out of the way even with your modified code. Is there a fix to this. Thanks!
How do you know its table 9? I'm trying to apply this to another site with a table, but have to find out which table I'm looking at, thanks.
I have been trying to figure out how to auto-populate dividend info into google sheets for a while. I tried the formula you listed above, but was not successful. Do you know if this formula is still current in January, 2023, or has something changed again like the table number?
What is the formula for the stock ticker plz?
Hi, do you have a solution to not show any number (or just 0) when a stock (for example paypal) doesnt pay any dividends? It just shows the #value error and I cant seem to figure out how to fix it
Hey bro, awesome videos. So my spreadsheet worked beautiful up until the other day, now it won't pull any data from Yahoo, displays N/A with an error that says " could not fetch url". All of my dividend paying stocks now have that error from Yahoo, so any other cells that reference those for calculations also don't work. Any ideas? Thank you
Your the Bully!! Thanks
Good, but Finviz doesn't have a complete listing of dividend paying stocks on the TSX. Could you suggest another screener that pull dividend data from the TSX please?
Hello have you found out another website that can use this method?
I keep getting an ERROR message :(( it says = "Function INDEX parameter 2 value is 7. Valid values are between 0 and 1 inclusive"
Hi Mate, I am having this error message each time I load the code. I have checked everything but nothing. Can you please help?
Error
Function MULTIPLY parameter 1 expects number values. But '-' is a text and cannot be coerced to a number
THe Ex div date from Yahoo isn't working for me. Could you please place the formula in the comments?
Great trick....
Any idea how you get valuation data from morningstar?
do you have an update for the Ex-Dividend Date line getting NA
Thank you for your video, i have been using your videos to take my spreadsheet up a notch. I had a problem with the ex-div formula not working for my ETF's. Any ideas? Thanks.
Glad you like them! And ETFs are just one of those tricky ones. Still trying to figure out the best formula for them
@@ThinkStocks Anything new on getting rid of 12/30/1899?
can you pull free cash flow from yahoo? or is this only able to be pulled from the first page? Thanks for your help
As someone pointed out to get the dividend payout you now use table 10 instead of nine.
Now the dividend date on yahoo has changed, has anyone figured this out yet?
Thanks
Ex-dividend only appeared in the cell i put the formula in for that stock but not the others. How could i fix this?
Why do I keep getting n/a or resource at url not found when trying to change the dynamic cell from where I input to ticker after changing the url for the cell where I input the ticker?
Thanks, but the dividend is the total annual dividend, not the exact dividend in the Ex-dividend date ? how it can be resolved?
Any update for what table is for the ex dividend date???
