Yahoo changed access?

I tried the code in the example of yfinance and it returns an error. Code: import yfinance as yf msft = yf.Ticker("MSFT")

get stock info

msft.info

get historical market data

hist = msft.history(period="max") Error: Traceback (most recent call last):

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I am experiencing the same issue with some of my apps in production. I think yahoo finance has revoked access to yfinance. The api is not working anymore.

It does work in development on my local machine, it could be a conflict with different versions of the package and python. Running some tests to see if that is the issue, will post on this thread if I was able to fix it.

Update

solution

package works fine, I had to delete env and reinstall packages then redeploy. It works now :)

Deleted and reloading yfinance then using yfinance directly works. pandas datareader is not working. I bet you need to reload pandas. I tried updating pandas but that did not work.
