# Receiving Data

Endpoints can be received in two standard ways. The first most common method is to retrieve all of the data in-line within the same page. This is prevalent in the Tickers and BasicOrders and several others. This is common for situations where single cell values are released for a given value.

Other times, you will see a new page created to house returned data. This is prevalent for Historical Market Data, Market Scanners, and more. This is where multiple values will be retrieved that correspond to the same identifier.

## In-row data"

For in-line data, you will see the value appear directly to the right. The code has been designed to reference the column headers. As such, if you find that certain data in in-line responses are not needed, you may simply remove the column form the sheet.

## New Page"

This will generate a brand new page at the end of the tab list as defined in the "Page Name" column of the original request. In the case of Historical data and the IBKR Stock request, you will see column V list "IBKR_STK_SMART_USD". In Column W, we will see the Activate Page column.
