I have some problem with the google_geocode function in googleway package. At first I've just tried it with a simple address:
key <- MyKey
df <- google_geocode(address = "5 Rue J-F Kennedy 8332 Luxembourg",
key = key,
simplify = TRUE)
And got the following message:
Error in value[[3L]](cond) :
There was an error downloading results. Please manually check the following URL is valid by entering it into a browswer. If valid, please file a bug report citing this URL (note: your API key has been removed, so you will need to add that back in)
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?&address=5+rue+j-f+kennedy+8332+luxembourg&key=
I'd pasted it to my browser, and it was OK. Any idea?

I have just received an Academic Twitter Developer privileges and am attempting to scrape some tweets. I updated RStudio, regenerated a new bearer token once I got updated Academic Twitter access, and get_bearer() returns my new bearer token. However, I continue to get the following error:
Error in make_query(url = endpoint_url, params = params, bearer_token = bearer_token, :
something went wrong. Status code: 403
In addition: Warning messages:
1: Recommended to specify a data path in order to mitigate data loss when ingesting large amounts of data.
2: Tweets will not be stored as JSONs or as a .rds file and will only be available in local memory if assigned to an object.
Additionally, I have tried specifying a data path, but I think I am confused as to what these means? I think that's where my issue lies, but does the data path way mean like a specific file pathway on my computer?
Below is the code I was attempting to use.This code worked previously with my professor's bearer token that they used to just show the output:
`tweets <-
get_all_tweets(
query = "#BlackLivesMatter",
start_tweets = "2020-01-01T00:00:00Z",
end_tweets = "2020-01-05T00:00:00Z",
n = 100)`
Thanks in advance!
Status code 403 means forbidden. You may want to check the error codes reference page of Twitter API here.
Perhaps your bearer token is misspelled?
I'm trying to run a code in R to get some data from FREDR package but I'm getting trouble to understand the error R shows me.
The code I have:
library(fredr)
fredr_set_key("...")
cpi <- fredr::fredr(series_id = "CPIAUCSL",observation_start = as.Date("1960-01-01"),observation_end = as.Date("2005-12-01"))
The error I get:
Error in (function (endpoint, ..., to_frame = TRUE, print_req = FALSE) :
400: Bad Request. The value for variable api_key is not a 32 character alpha-numeric lower-case string. Read https://research.stlouisfed.org/docs/api/api_key.html for more information.
This code runs perfectly in the computer of my professor (who is a Windows user) so I think that the problem may be related to my Mac but I'm really not sure.
Mac OS 10.15.4
Did you use your API key? You should request one here: https://research.stlouisfed.org/docs/api/api_key.html
Then replace ... with your API key.
I am trying to use pdftables package to extract data into csv.
install.packages("pdftables")
library(pdftables)
write.csv(head(iris), file = "test.csv", row.names = FALSE)
Open test.csv and print as PDF to "test.pdf"
convert_pdf("test.pdf", "test2.csv")
However, I am getting the following error:
Error in get_content(input_file, format, api_key) : Bad Request
(HTTP 400).
What's the fix here?
Did you get an API token?
To use the package the user first needs to sign up to the PDFTables API to get an API token (they offer a free package that allows up to 50 pages).
See: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/pdftables/README.html
To use the PDFTables R package, you need to the run the following command:
convert_pdf('test/index.pdf', output_file = NULL, format = "xlsx-single", message = TRUE, api_key = "insert_API_key")
Make sure you replace insert_API_key with your API key, and change the file path and/or format.

I found an answer to my own question (see below). Still need help.
In the same package, quantmod, there is an option called getSymbol.google.
Nevertheless,
If I use it to get Microsoft value, for example, it works all right
getSymbols.google('MSFT', environment() , src="google", from = (Sys.Date() - 1))
[1] "MSFT"
But, I can´t make it work on a currency pair;
getSymbols.google("GBPUSD", environment() , src="google", from = (Sys.Date() - 1))
Error in download.file(paste(google.URL, "q=", Symbols.name, "&startdate=", :
cannot open URL 'http://finance.google.com/finance/historical?q=GBPUSD&startdate=Nov+02,+2017&enddate=Nov+03,+2017&output=csv'
In addition: Warning message:
In download.file(paste(google.URL, "q=", Symbols.name, "&startdate=", :
cannot open URL 'http://finance.google.com/finance/historical?q=GBPUSD&startdate=Nov+02,+2017&enddate=Nov+03,+2017&output=csv': HTTP status was '400 Bad Request'
Any ideas?
Good morning,
Since the 1ts of November i´m having trouble with the function getQuote from Yahoo. Is a function inside the package "quantmod", which uses yahoo API to request the information.
The description of the function is as follows; Fetch current stock quote(s) from specified source. At present this only handles sourcing quotes from Yahoo Finance, but it will be extended to additional sources over time.
In r, i´m getting the following error; "HTTP status was '403 Forbidden'"
I´ve look on my browser and the error comes from the following error in Yahoo web page "Fetch current stock quote(s) from specified source. At present this only handles sourcing quotes from Yahoo Finance, but it will be extended to additional sources over time."
Does anybody know how to solve ir, or, any alternatives to the function getQuote()
Here is an example from RStudio
getQuote("AAPL")
Error in download.file(paste("https://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=", :
cannot open URL 'https://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=AAPL&f=d1t1l1c1p2ohgv'
In addition: Warning message:
In download.file(paste("https://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=", :
cannot open URL 'https://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=AAPL&f=d1t1l1c1p2ohgv': HTTP status was '403 Forbidden'
Thanks
seems that yahoo has discontinued this service. Anyone aware of a alternative for yahoo (I'd rather not have to webscrape yahoo for this)

I ran into the same problem... it's kludgey but as a workaround to get the end-of-day value, I have found this to work for now:
Instead of getQuote() to get the Last price (which doesn't seem to work from Yahoo anymore):
underlying<-"AAPL"
quote.last <-getQuote(underlying)$Last
I use "getSymbols" which still works-- throws it into a new data frame, and I pull out the value I want from that:
Hx<-getSymbols(underlying,from=Sys.Date()-1) # allows me to not have to retain the ticker name if I do this across many tickers
quote.last<-as.double(tail(Cl(get(Hx)),1)) # Closing price value from last row of data
rm(list=Hx) # throw away the temporary data frame with quote history
I'm sure the's a more elegant way to do it, but this is what fell out of my brain as a quick workaround that got it done... sadly that doesn't get things like the Bid and Ask that getQuote does.
I can not throttle-up my downloads by using the token issued to my app (on data.chicago.com portal, where I had to register)
Error 1:
token <- "___my_app_token__";
fdf <- read.socrata("h___s://data.cityofchicago.org/resource/7edu-s3u7.csv?$where=station_name=\"Foster Weather Station\"", token)
2016-10-06 10:39:53.685 getResponse:
Error in httr GET: 403 h___s://data.cityofchicago.org/resource/7edu-s3u7.csv?%24where=station_name%3D%22Foster%20Weather%20Station%22&app_token=%2524%2524app_token%3D___my_app_token_______
I have NO IDEA where did the first 'token' (2524 2524) come from, do you? Can somebody tell me? Maybe the author of the package is here?
Non-error:
fdf <- read.socrata("h___s://data.cityofchicago.org/resource/7edu-s3u7.csv?$where=station_name=\"Foster Weather Station\"")
WITHOUT A TOKEN (and not throttled-up) works perfectly well!
and this 'open source' h___s://github.com/Chicago/RSocrata/blob/master/R/RSocrata.R doesn't answer the question as well.
It looks like the syntax you're using to pass your app token is wrong. I'm no R expert, but I found this example in the documentation for the RSocrata library:
df <- read.socrata("http://soda.demo.socrata.com/resource/4334-bgaj.csv",
app_token = "__my_app_token__")
Try passing your app token as a named parameter instead of an indexed parameter, and see if that helps.
