Workflow

1. Export Your Portfolio Data

Determine your portafolio ID by going to and looking for the p_0 or similar in the path when opening the portafolio in:

https://finance.yahoo.com/portfolios/

Download your portfolio transactions from Yahoo Finance:

https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/ws/portfolio-api/v1/portfolio/transactions?pfId=YOUR_PORTFOLIO_ID&category=trades&groupByPositionId=true&lang=en-US&region=US

Save the JSON file in your chosen resources directory (e.g., my_portfolio_data/my_portfolio.json).

2. Parse Transactions

yfinance-viz-parse --resources-path /path/to/my/portfolio/data

This will:

• Prompt you to select which JSON files to process
• Convert transactions to CSV format
• Save as transactions.csv in your resources directory

3. Download Stock History

yfinance-viz-download --resources-path /path/to/my/portfolio/data

Downloads historical price data for all tickers in your transactions.

4. Generate Visualization

yfinance-viz-visualize --resources-path /path/to/my/portfolio/data

Creates an interactive Sankey diagram showing fund flows between your portfolio positions.
