Output
JSON
news- Array of news items fetched from the Finnhub API, each containing details such as headline, category, source, datetime, and related stock symbols.
Dependencies
- Finnhub API key credential for authentication
Troubleshooting
- Ensure the Finnhub API key credential is correctly configured and has the necessary permissions for premium endpoints if 'Premium Access' is enabled.
- If no news is returned, verify that the 'Category' parameter is set correctly and that the 'Min Id' filter is not excluding all results.
- Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow or network issues exist; adjust the 'Timeout' setting or check network connectivity.
- If SSL certificate validation fails and you trust the source, enable 'Ignore SSL Issues' to bypass this check.
