Problems with symbols that contain a dash (eg. ALK-B.XCSE)
Some Danish and Swedish company symbols contains a dash -. For example:
- alk-b.xcse - Alk-abello A/S B Aktie
- novo-b.xcse - Novo Nordisk A/S B Aktie
- swed-a.xsto - SWEDBANK AB
If I try end-of-day for any of these three I just get an error message that there is no symbols. For example:
http://api.marketstack.com/v1/eod?access_key=myKey&symbols=alk-b.xcse
gives:
{"error":{"code":"no_valid_symbols_provided","message":"At least one valid symbol must be provided"}}
If instead one tries with a company without a dash in its symbol - eg. CHR.XCSE as in:
http://api.marketstack.com/v1/eod?access_key=myKey&symbols=CHR.XCSE
it works like a charm!
It turns out that in some cases one can use the "_" (underscore) instead of "-" (dash).
Thanks - I added this to the github issue for others to find.
Best,
Kasper

Hi, I noticed your comment as I had been doing some development using HEXA_B.XSTO. If you change "-" to "_" then it will work: swed_a.xsto But be careful, I found that HEXA_B.XSTO prices stopped a few weeks ago, never to resume. No response from support.
