# List Markets
# List All Markets
To start using the API, you first need to know the FinID for the market or markets you're interested in. Use the List Markets endpoint to get this information programmatically.
TIP
You can also browse our data coverage to see what's available.
After looking through the list of all markets you may still be unsure which FinID to use. Contact our team and we'll be happy to assist with mapping the FinIDs.
You can also use the market details endpoint to get more information about a market. In the details there is a memo field which described the securities that fall under a FinID.
# MICs (Market Identification Codes)
We include segment MIC in the response to help you finding the appropriate FinID.
However, MICs alone are not granular enough to identify distinct trading schedules and calendars.
That is why we use FinID, a proprietary market identifier.
In order to find the correct FinID, look at exchange, market, and product.
Note
If you need help determining which FinID to use, contact us. We'll be happy to help.
