Hi guys,

Yesterday I could retrieve the calender info with any issues, trying it this morning (same code), I received the following error below. How can I fix this?

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\vanderMeijden\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python310\site-packages\requests\models.py", line 971, in json return complexjson.loads(self.text, **kwargs) File "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_3.10.2288.0_x64qbz5n2kfra8p0\lib\json\init.py", line 346, in loads

obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end()) File "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_3.10.2288.0_x64__qbz5n2kfra8p0\lib\json\decoder.py", line 355, in raw_decode raise JSONDecodeError("Expecting value", s, err.value) from None json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\Users\vanderMeijden\Desktop\EIA\EIACalender", line 28, in calender = investpy.news.economic_calendar(from_date="19/10/2022", to_date="21/10/2022") File "C:\Users\vanderMeijden\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python310\site-packages\investpy\news.py", line 251, in economic_calendar root = fromstring(req.json()["data"]) File "C:\Users\vanderMeijden\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python310\site-packages\requests\models.py", line 975, in json raise RequestsJSONDecodeError(e.msg, e.doc, e.pos) requests.exceptions.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

Hi everyone, so this issue is due to Investing.com's new protection with Cloudflare V2, this has affected investpy and investiny, but I've already contacted them so as to see whether we can get to a collaboration agreement, I'll keep you all posted, sorry for the inconveniences...

[normanvdmeijden]

@alvarobartt thanks for the update. Really appreciate all the work you have done and what you have made possible thusfar!

I've gotten the economic_calendar module working again by using the library cfscraper, and using that to make requests by adding import cfscraper to the imports and scraper = cfscrape.create_scraper() above the while True loop, and then replacing req = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=data) with req = scraper.post(url, headers=headers, data=data)

@jazz-g it works with cfscrape. thanks for info.

[normanvdmeijden]

@jazz-g Thanks, but when I tried this I am requested for a license key. any idea what I am doing wrong?

[Lontaren]

Hi! What a great community we have, thanks for the solution. @normanvdmeijden I believe you're importing the wrong module, it's supposed to be crscrape (not crscraper) Thanks for the solution @jazz-g

[normanvdmeijden]

@jazz-g @Lontaren Yes it is up and running now, thanks for all the support

[varshasahasrabuddhe]

i need a little bit of help here. i am using below function. how do i get it using cfscrape exogs = investpy.economic_calendar(time_zone = "GMT", countries = ["United States"], importances = ['high','medium','low'],from_date= date_from, to_date = date_to)

[Lontaren]

@varshasahasrabuddhe You need to modify the investpy package (in this case the news.py file) with the code @jazz-g suggested

[varshasahasrabuddhe]

Thank you Lontaren and @jazz-g
