Starting sometime this afternoon failures of the
"https://query2.finance.yahoo.com/v6/finance/quote?..."; API/URL have
been failing consistently.
There is already an F::Q issue opened,
https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/issues/282. No need to
add "me too" messages to the comments.
Using one of the alternate Yahoo URLs such as
"https://query2.finance.yahoo.com/v11/finance/quoteSummary/..."; will be
a bit more involved than a simple one-character fix. Concern is that
Yahoo blocks access to that URL after doing the work. Possible changing
to a web scrape of the "https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/..."; is another
possible solution, but again not a quick fix.
I may not have a lot of time in the next few weeks, so volunteers are
more than welcome to rewrite the module (also note there is a now a
CurrencyRates/YahooJSON.pm module that was able to get exchange rates)
and submit a pull request.
Related to this, there is also a general discussion about exploring
other F::Q quote sources at
https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/discussions/274.
Thank you.
