chartDF throws PyException

[LEO-E-100]

After running:

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from datetime import datetime
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pyEX as p

ticker = 'AMD'
timeframe = '1y'

df = p.chartDF(ticker, timeframe)

I get

PyEXception: ('Response 403 - ', 'Forbidden')

If you haven't done so you should onboard to IEX cloud. The legacy APIs are being decommissioned

Sorry, but this response doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Do you mean I should interface directly with IEX REST API?

According to schedule, IEX has begun decommissioning the old routes. This means pyEX.chartDF(...) has stopped working unless you provide an IEX Cloud token.

instead you can do c = pyEX.client.Client(<your token>); c.chartDF(...)

Data is still free, you can # and grab a token at https://iexcloud.io

Then for pyEX you can instantiate a client directly with your token or put it in the IEX_TOKEN environment variable.

Ah I see, thank you so much.
