Thanks for the help!

It appears that the Yahoo! Finance API is no more. I've replaced it with openexchangerates.org in v3.1.

You'll need an API key, which you can get for free here.

from alfred-convert.

Where to put API key? this project shows wrong currency prices... Also it doesn't know Kazakhstani tenge, unlike Yahoo finance. Possible to use: https://finance.google.com/finance ?

Where to put API key?

Read the instructions

this project shows wrong currency prices...

For example…?

Also it doesn't know Kazakhstani tenge

Yes, it does.

Possible to use: https://finance.google.com/finance?

I already told you "no".

from alfred-convert.

@deanishe Do you just copy and paste the entire result generated from the api key request into "value" for APP_KEY? I've done that so far and it's still not working correctly for me.

from alfred-convert.

@tenpoundhero When you sign up, they send you an email with an "App ID". Paste that in to the APP_KEY value.

Alternatively, you can grab your "App ID" from here.

@deanishe APP_KEYnow has my "App ID"

That's my log, it's still having trouble finding GBP
P.S. I have now updated to 3.2

from alfred-convert.

Can you post the entire log for that query (i.e. not just the error message) and format it properly, please?

Also, try running conv workflow:delcache first.

conv 1btc usd shows 7.183USD, while everywhere it's 7.238USD. Where does (openexchangerates.org) gets cryptocurrency rates?

from alfred-convert.

How to refresh rates quickly?

I see you still haven't read the README.

Please stop wasting my time with questions that are answered in the README.
