Does YFinance.jl need a key？

[rzhli]

using YFinance

get_prices("AAPL", range="1d", interval="90m")

Stacktrace:
 [1] getproperty(x::HTTP.Exceptions.StatusError, f::Symbol)
   @ Base ./Base.jl:49

Hi @rzhli thanks for opening an issue.
No you don't need a key.
I just checked from my Android and the function runs fine for me.
Do you maybe need a proxy to access the internet?
If so you can set it like this:

create_proxy_settings("http://proxy.xyz.com:8080",user="your username",password="Your Password")

If you don't need a proxy can you see whether Julia can access the internet by running this check please:

using HTTP
res = HTTP.get("https://www.google.com");
res.status==200

What Julia version are you on?

I'm using a subscribe URL to access Internet:

I don't know how to set the proxy in julia

I'm not personally familiar with Hiddify or its subscribe URL system. However, to use a proxy with YFinance.jl, you'll need to find the following information from your Hiddify client:

1. Look in your Hiddify client settings for:

   • HTTP or HTTPS proxy settings
   • The local proxy address (usually something like 127.0.0.1)
   • The port number being used (common ports are 1080, 10809, or 20809)

2. Once you have these details, you can configure YFinance.jl like this:

   create_proxy_settings("http://127.0.0.1:YOUR_PORT")

   If your setup requires username and password (uncommon for local proxies):

   create_proxy_settings("http://127.0.0.1:YOUR_PORT", user="username", password="password")
