Hi Bob,

Good to know. Can you give an example of a stock and the symbol you used
that used to work please?

Hi,

I have also lost access to Alphavantage stocks on LSE. It last worked on
24 June, but failed on the 25th. I have checked both my stocks with
gnc-fq-dump and neither work, so I have changed to Yahoo-json.

I'm using Gnucash 3.10 on Fedora 32.

Regards
Bob Dean
