Dividend Events Provide Ex-Dividend Date Instead of Payment Date

[Ludevsoftware]

Description

When querying for dividend events using the "events": "div" parameter, the returned data provides the Ex-dividend date instead of the payment date. This can be misleading as users may expect to receive the actual payment date for the dividends.

Is there any way to obtain the dividend history along with the payment date?

Example

Here is an example of the response for the Apple ticker where the last payment date was 2024-08-14, but the date in payload is 2024-08-12:

"events": {
  "dividends": {
    "1699453800": {
      "amount": 0.24,
      "date": 1699626600
    },
    "1707229800": {
      "amount": 0.24,
      "date": 1707489000
    },
    "1715002200": {
      "amount": 0.25,
      "date": 1715347800
    },
    "1723210200": {
      "amount": 0.25,
      "date": 1723469400
    }
  }
}
