At first glance, putting the url into a browser results in a 404 error

The url in the module no longer works… it won’t give an error it’s a 404 error…
I’m seeing if I can find a url replacement…

@alexyak
can’t seem to get this updating on the MM display, any ideas? Was there any change to the original code? -
@cowboysdude
Did you find a working URL replacement?
Have you been using another Stocks module instead? -
@homebrew No sorry I haven’t. I don’t use stock modules :) I don’t do stocks LOL
BUT if you can find a url that works I can look at the module for you…

@Mykle1
have you found a replacement url or just using another stocks module? -
Like @cowboysdude, I don’t use stock modules. My interest in this topic was to troubleshoot for @Mitch1138 3 months ago. The API that was being used is no longer available. Cowboysdude and I both looked for a free API but there didn’t seem to be one available at the time.
If you can find a free API then I’ll certainly collaborate with Cowboysdude if he wanted some assistance

@homebrew
i’m too - i can’t see anything on my display if i use the Stocks module.
I‘m useing mm 2.2.1 on a raspberry pi. -
I’ve found a web service which provides free intraday stock quotes. You will only need to register to get an API key.

The code in the module will need to be modified though to parse a different payload result. I will try to update it today or tomorrow.
