Seems to be a problem with requests and yahoo finance response = session.get('https://query2.finance.yahoo.com/v1/test/getcrumb') response.text is empty. Works in browser where it returns: <html><head><meta name="color-scheme" content="light dark"></head><body><pre style="s: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap;">CRUMB</pre></body></html>

Is this a user agent issue? Been trying different settings without luck.

@bjosun I’ll check this out over the weekend and see.

I conducted some testing and encountered an issue with obtaining the cookie from Yahoo using requests. However, I managed to circumvent this issue by manually obtaining the cookie from Chrome and applying it to the request header. This approach worked successfully. Below is the tested code:


url = "https://query2.finance.yahoo.com/v1/test/getcrumb"

# Use the cookies in the request headers for subsequent requests
headers = {
    "Host": "query2.finance.yahoo.com",
    "Cache-Control": "max-age=0",
    "Accept": "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/avif,image/webp,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8",

@JECSand Did you have any progress with it?

Feb 15 '24 07:02 bjosun

@JECSand @bjosun I've run the code provided and get the following response 200, which is good. So if I understand your question it seems to be working.

`Response Headers: {'content-type': 'text/plain;charset=utf-8', 'cache-control': 'private', 'x-frame-options': 'SAMEORIGIN', 'x-envoy-upstream-service-time': '2', 'date': 'Tue, 27 Feb 2024 10:54:06 GMT', 'server': 'ATS', 'x-envoy-decorator-operation': 'finance-yql--mtls-default-production-gq1.finance-k8s.svc.yahoo.local:4080/*', 'Age': '0', 'Strict-Transport-Security': 'max-age=31536000', 'Referrer-Policy': 'no-referrer-when-downgrade', 'Transfer-Encoding': 'chunked', 'Connection': 'keep-alive', 'Expect-CT': 'max-age=31536000, report-uri="http://csp.yahoo.com/beacon/csp?src=yahoocom-expect-ct-report-only"', 'X-XSS-Protection': '1; mode=block', 'X-Content-Type-Options': 'nosniff'}

Status Code: 200`

Correct, the snippet works. But i can't get yahoofinancials to get the yahoo finance cookie. Which makes possible to get the crumb. Yahoofinancials get_key_statistics_data() only works when I get the cookie from a browser.

@bjosun can you somehow google that or ask chatgpt to suggest alternate routes, I don't know if response handling will work but hope you figure it out. Let us know
