node-ib can’t get quote for MSFT

I can get historical quotes for most stocks, but for MSFT I get the error: “The contract specified for MSFT is ambiguous”. Reading on IB forum it looks like I need to set the “primary exchange” in order to remove the ambiguity, which I gather is ISLAND??.
With node-in, I don’t see how this is possible?? Any help in resolving this error greatly appreciated!! Thanks!

It's the weekend and IB's servers are hosed as usual, but what happens when you pass the exchange to ib.contrack.stock('MSFT', 'ISLAND', 'USD')? How about when passing 'SMART'?

The primary exchange is returned by reqContractDetails, rather than something you supply.

I’ve tried with just ‘SMART’ and just ‘ISLAND’ and tried to combine as in ‘SMART/ISLAND’ and got the same error each time of “ambiguous”. But my code works fine for GOOG, TSLA, etc. it seems I need a setContractDetails function...
