right	string	no	both	Option side. Use both or * (alias) for calls and puts. Accepted values: call, put, both, *.
date	date	no	—	Single date YYYYMMDD. Supply this for a single-day pull, or supply start_date/end_date for a range. When present, date takes precedence over the range.
start_time	string	no	09:30:00	Start time filter
end_time	string	no	16:00:00	End time filter
annual_dividend	float	no	—	Annualized expected dividend amount, in dollars per share, used in the Greeks calculation (e.g. 2.5 is $2.50 per share per year).

Wildcard requests additionally populate expiration (YYYYMMDD), strike (dollars), and right ("C" / "P") on every row to identify the contract; on single-contract requests these are absent (None / null / undefined; the Rust and C rows carry the documented 0 / 0.0 / '\0' fills).
