Re: [GNC] Price update not working - Alpha Vantage's limit is five (5) API requests per one (1) minute

I went through and changed nearly all of my listings to Yahoo - JSON, and the update now takes 10 seconds instead of 7 minutes, so that was certainly the issue. On Mon, Oct 10, 2022 at 2:46 PM R Losey wrote: > Geoff - agreed. Thanks for your help. I like the idea of using multiple > sources -

Geoff - agreed. Thanks for your help. I like the idea of using multiple sources - is there a way to edit the various things it tries? Perhaps I could move Alpha to the back of the list? On Mon, Oct 10, 2022 at 1:35 AM Geoff wrote: > Thanks for letting us know Ismael. > > Richard - this looks

This sounds like it is the cause... I like multiple, but maybe alpha should not be first on the list. I may have to try something else or just live with it. Thank you very much!! On Mon, Oct 10, 2022 at 12:50 AM Ismael Smajli wrote: > Hello Alpha Vantage's standard API usage is limited to five

Alphavantage has always rate-limited free quotes to five quotes per minute. When we started using them the quote rate was the primary difference between account tiers. Regards, John Ralls > On Oct 10, 2022, at 2:34 AM, Geoff wrote: > > Thanks for letting us know Ismael. > > Richard - this

Thanks for letting us know Ismael. Richard - this looks like the explanation for the delays you are seeing. Alpha Vantage are gently tightening the screws on their free service... Geoff = On 10/10/2022 4:50 pm, Ismael Smajli wrote: Hello Alpha Vantage's standard API usage is limited to

H I think I may have just about run out of ideas. If the GUI is just as slow as the CLI we have ruled that variable out. Perhaps you could try using "Yahoo as JSON" as the Quote Source in the Securities Editor. It won't take you very long to swap over your 18 securities, and this will

I'm not fetching that many -- maybe around 18 or so (I didn't count). In the "old" days from the GUI, it would only take seconds (that was pre-Alpha Vantage) I'm not sure how busy their servers are... but when I run the gnc-fq-dump program using Alpha Vantage and getting four quotes, it returns

While it's always best to try to use the latest versions, Richard's error message doesn't sound like one that has to do with currency rate retrieval (which I believe is the major bug that F::Q1.53 is meant to fix). I would personally check to see what quote sources are selected for each

Hi... yes, I did not have al ALPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY and that was the issue. Things now seem to be updating properly. It is supposed to take so long? There is a long (7 minute) delay before the update finishes... I've been using the gnucash-cli command line. On Sat, Oct 8, 2022 at 1:03 AM Geoff

Hi Richard If you have configured your GnuCash securities to retrieve their prices using AlphaVantage then you need to make sure that you have entered your API Key in GnuCash preferences. Also, depending on the problem, it may help if you upgrade to a later version of of Finance Quote:-

I just installed GnuCash on Ubuntu 22.04LTS (it is version 4.8 from the Ubuntu Software area). On a different Ubuntu, I had an older version running, and back then, price updates were working. I managed to mess up that gnucash Linux install, so I haven't been updating quotes - I've been using
