Debug

Known issues

breakingOpenBB v4 changed the command structure: use `obb.economy.oecd.<indicator>(...)` instead of `obb.economy.oecd.<indicator>()` with positional arguments. Parameters are now keyword-only.

fix

Update to keyword arguments and use the new nested command path.

affects: >=4.0.0

deprecatedThe 'oecd' provider is being merged into 'openbb-economy' in future releases. This extension may become a meta-package.

fix

Monitor OpenBB announcements; no action required yet.

affects: >=1.5.0

gotchaAuthentication via OpenBB Personal Access Token (PAT) is required even for public OECD data. Missing PAT will raise 'AuthenticateError'.

fix

Set OPENBB_PAT environment variable or use obb.account.login(pat='...').

affects: all
