error response recieved from upstream api about finance-go HOT 11 CLOSED

This issue seems to be back, and has been going on for a few days.

Changing the yahoo api url from v7 to v6 should give you something that works right now. There's a PR for that here: #27

from finance-go.

Guys, PR opened by @alai04 from last month fixed it for a while. However, about three days ago I've noticed that error response from upstream api occurred again and after looking through this issue i tried to access url mentioned and got the following response:

{"finance":{"result":null,"error":{"code":"Unauthorized","description":"Invalid Crumb. For Developers - https://bit.ly/yahoo-finance-api-feedback"}}}

So after heading to the link, they basically say that they can't redistribute financial data from 3rd parties in API form.

I switched to @psanford's fork and it seems to be working, at least for now: https://github.com/psanford/finance-go

Today it seems to be working again.

I think Yahoo temporarily did something with their API. The yahooquery Python library also noticed issues:

dpguthrie/yahooquery#178

It was not working for about a day for me, but now it is working.

Perhaps reopen this bug.

I don't have permission to reopen the bug.

Thanks @psanford, ran go get github.com/piquette/finance-go@latest to grab the latest version (v1.1.0) to include the PR, and it fixed the issue!

I also began seeing the Unauthorized errors again, even after switching to v1.1.0. Looks like the fork might be the way to go for now.

Bumping this, as I received the same error on v1.1.0 when I run:

q, err := equity.Get("AAPL")
if err != nil {
  // Uh-oh.  
  panic(err)
}

// Success!
fmt.Println(q)
