I noticed that all requests are returning empty data for most requests. I suspect the morningstar scraping is failing.

From their website "Key Ratios will be retired soon, please see Key Statistics for content."

Looks like the data is now under "trailing returns" tab: https://www.morningstar.com/stocks/xnas/goog/trailing-returns

Seems this data come from an API gated by authentication.

A potential alternative is a site called stockrow.com. It's US companies only, but seems to have a json API with similar 10 years of data: https://stockrow.com/api/companies/GOOG/new_key_stats.json
