401 (Unauthorized) error on Azure

I am getting the following error on Azure: Flurl.Http.FlurlHttpException: Request to https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v7/finance/download/MCD?period1=1436745600&period2=1499817600&interval=1d&events=history&crumb= failed with status code 401 (Unauthorized). at Flurl.Http.Configuration.FlurlMessageHandler.d__1.MoveNext() in C:\projects\flurl\src\Flurl.Http.Shared\Configuration\FlurlMessageHandler.cs:line 59 --- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown --- at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) at System.Net.Http.HttpClient.d__58.MoveNext()

It works flawlessly for a day or two with requests made every few hours, then the above exception starts being thrown. It looks like the crumb parameter is empty? What could cause that?

Hello guys, I will just share some of my slim version of flurlClient with repeat logic for generic FlurlHttpException. Maybe you will find it usefull:

` public class YahooFlurlClient { private static string _crumb;

    private const string QueryUrl = "https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v7/finance/download";
    private const string CrumbUrl = "https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v1/test/getcrumb";

    private const string Period1Tag = "period1";
    private const string Period2Tag = "period2";
    private const string IntervalTag = "interval";
    private const string EventsTag = "events";
    private const string CrumbTag = "crumb";

    private static readonly IDictionary<Period, string> PeriodMap = new Dictionary<Period, string>
    {
        {Period.Daily, "d"},
        {Period.Weekly, "w"},
        {Period.Monthly, "m"}
    };

    public static async Task<Stream> GetResponseStreamAsync(string symbol, DateTime? startTime, DateTime? endTime,
        Period period = Period.Daily, string events= "history")
    {
        var yahooClient = YahooClientFactory.GetYahooClient;

        //Example URI
        //https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v7/finance/download/
        //SBUX?period1=1451602800&period2=1496140683&interval=1d&events=history&crumb=.BprRZODzhT
        var url = QueryUrl
            .AppendPathSegment(symbol)
            .SetQueryParam(Period1Tag, (startTime ?? new DateTime(1970, 1, 1)).ToUnixTimestamp())
            .SetQueryParam(Period2Tag, (endTime ?? DateTime.Now).ToUnixTimestamp())
            .SetQueryParam(IntervalTag, $"1{PeriodMap[period]}")
            .SetQueryParam(EventsTag, events)
            .SetQueryParam(CrumbTag, YahooClientFactory.Crumb);

        try
        {
            return await yahooClient.EnableCookies()
                .WithUrl(url)
                .GetAsync(CancellationToken.None)
                .ReceiveStream();
        }

                .WithUrl(url)
                .GetAsync(CancellationToken.None)
                .ReceiveStream();

            .GetAsync(CancellationToken.None)
            .ReceiveString()
            .Result;
    }
}

public enum Period

Thanks a lot! It seems to work much better already, I’ll let you know if I still encounter issues.
