quandl already not update WIKI source anymore.

Please change exmaple to EOD, which can fetch the latest prices.

Received this from Quandl Support April 11, 2018:

I'm emailing you because you've downloaded US stock price data from the WIKI data feed in the past.

As you know, WIKI is a community-maintained data feed based on public sources. Unfortunately, one of the main sources of that data is no longer available, and our community volunteers have been unable to find a suitable alternative source.

As a result, the WIKI data feed is likely to be a lot less reliable in the future, with potentially missing or incorrect data or delayed updates.

We will continue to host this data feed on Quandl, but we no longer recommend using it for investment or analysis.

Unfortunately, we don't have any free stock price data feeds that can replace WIKI at this time. The closest alternative we have is EOD, which is a value-priced end-of-day US stock price data feed.

Thank you for your understanding.

share=bb.Share('EOD', 'GOOGL') will have a forbiddenError, So we need to create a free Quandl account, then include the API key, right?

quandl.errors.quandl_error.ForbiddenError: (Status 403) (Quandl Error QEPx05) You have attempted to view a premium database in anonymous mode, i.e., without providing a Quandl key. Please register for a free Quandl account, and then include your API key with your requests.

I created a free Quandl account, and included the API key.

when I tried share = bb.Share(source ='WIKI',ticker = 'GOOGL',start = '2020-01-01', end ='2020-08-25'),
I only got data up till 2018. I guess it's due to the discontinuity of their data service in Quandl.

when I tried share=bb.Share('EOD', 'GOOGL'), I got the error message below. Is EOD data free to download?

quandl.errors.quandl_error.ForbiddenError: (Status 403) (Quandl Error QEPx04) You do not have permission to view this dataset. Please subscribe to this database to get access.

All NASDAQ Datalink EOD data is subscription only. You need a "free" account to access the paid data. As noted above, the community-run WIKI data is both stale (2018) and discontinued. Yet another API paywall...
