I trade live and I can see dividends paid to me in the end-of-month PDF statements. Is there a way to request this info using API? I do it in python but any information would be helpful. I just need to know the endpoint and the request’s format. Thanks!

@arrow107 The `account_activities` endpoint can be used to fetch dividends. Enter `DIV` for the activity type. Unfortunately, I don’t think this endpoint is supported directly in some of the SDKs (including `alpaca-py`). You will need to use a base `get` method and explicitly provide the endpoint and parameters. There’s info in the docs [here](https://docs.alpaca.markets/reference/getaccountactivities-2).
