Hello!
I'm not expert, so I hope I'll be clear.
With "edgar.download_index" method, the following error returns:
HTTPError: Forbidden
I can reproduce the error even just by running the code shown in the "Common issues" paragraph of the documentation (adding the user_agent)
def main(): import edgar user_agent = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/86.0.4240.111 Safari/537.36 Edg/86.0.622.51' edgar.download_index(".", 2015, user_agent, skip_all_present_except_last=False) if __name__ == '__main__': main()
I obtain this
I used an older version, which started to give some issues, as missing quarters, and so on.
I updated to the latest version, and this is what's happening.
Also updated requests, but still "erroring".
Desktop (please complete the following information):
- OS: Win 10
- Python 3.7.11 (the screenshot is with 3.7.3, but with the .11 is the same)
In any way:
thank you for the support, but first, thank you for the package.
Found out that the user-agent I were using, even if correct for the browser, was the problem.
Using 'XYZ/3.0' seems works fine!
This trick worked nicely for a few days.
But it's back again, and the trick is not working anymore.
Can someone please help?
