  • Hi,
    Even I cannot download Yahoo quotes today.
    But I have them for yesterday 19/7/2021
    It's the intraday that is not downloading.
  • Should I assume the problem is specific to PortfolioSlicer as I see no posts on Google?

  • Vidas posted the revision needed to get Yahoo intraday data below in response to a similar question about Portfolio Slicer V2.4. I changed the line of code and was able to get the intraday data. Thanks again, Vidas!
  • I am in Canada, and I can confirm that Yahoo quote download works as expected.
    If anyone still has problems - please tell me the country that you are trying to access Yahoo from. I have seen in the past when Yahoo change source data formatting for some countries and thus cousing download scripts stop working.
  • @VidasMatelis ,

    I'm still having trouble with this. I'm in canada and have tried ID 31, 32 and 49.

    Are you able to explain a way for me to check what ID I need to use?

    Here are intraday logs for each ID:

    ID: 31 (Price found is same for every symbol)

    Symbol: FB. Next date: 2021-08-24. Quote file: C:\PortfolioSlicer\PSDataExtract\Quotes\_FB_.txt
    Requesting url: https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/FB
    Found price: 35320.00

    ID: 32

    Symbol: FB. Next date: 2021-08-24. Quote file: C:\PortfolioSlicer\PSDataExtract\Quotes\_FB_.txt
    Requesting url: https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/FB
    ** For Symbol: FB new quotes not found (there is no 'D(ib)" data-reactid="32">' in html that came back)

    ID:49

    Symbol: FB. Next date: 2021-08-24. Quote file: C:\PortfolioSlicer\PSDataExtract\Quotes\_FB_.txt
    Requesting url: https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/FB
    ** For Symbol: FB new quotes not found (there is no 'D(ib)" data-reactid="49">' in html that came back)
  • Jamesr3,

    Here are troubleshoothing steps for Firefox browser, other browsers steps should be very similar.

    go to requesting URL: https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/FB
    Take a note of the price, example 368.39
    In your web browser on that page in the empty area do right mouse click and choose "View Page Source" - this will open new page with html code. Do a search for 368.39 and review html code around the price and see what ID is used.
