CsvProvider Documentation - Google finance historical 403 Forbidden

[demonno]

If you try to follow the example in the CsvProvider documentation, it is not working currently.

// Download the stock prices
let msft = Stocks.Load("http://www.google.com/finance/historical?q=MSFT&output=csv")

Fails here because google restricted access to historical finance data

https://www.google.com/finance/historical?q=MSFT&output=csv

If there is an alternative API to get the same data, docs can be updated based on working example.

Same issue for CsvFile Doc

Have you found a way to work around this? I am trying to use google finance data as well.

🤖 This is an automated response from Repo Assist.

The documentation issue this was filed for has been resolved — the CsvProvider docs no longer use the Google Finance historical data URL. The example was updated to use Yahoo Finance data stored in a local MSFT.csv file bundled with the repo, which works reliably without any live HTTP dependency.

If you still need to load live stock data, some options:

• Yahoo Finance (unofficial CSV download): `(query1.finance.yahoo.com/redacted)
• Alpha Vantage API: Free tier with CSV output ((www.alphavantage.co/redacted))

Both can be used with CsvProvider<"..."> once you have a representative local sample file for design time.

Since the original docs concern has been addressed, this issue can likely be closed.
