Case-sensitive parameter name

Logs in with API key from env var and fetches GDP data for United States.

Debug

Known issues

breakingVersion 4.x removed direct function access; all endpoints are now methods under the tradingeconomics module (e.g., te.getIndicatorData instead of standalone getIndicatorData). Rewrite imports and calls.

fix

Use module-level functions: import tradingeconomics as te then te.login() and te.getIndicatorData()

affects: 4.0+

gotchaThe login() function must be called before any data fetch. Missing leads to AuthenticationError.

fix

Always call te.login('YOUR_API_KEY') first.

affects: all

deprecatedgetCalendar() returns raw JSON; consider using getCalendarData() with filters for structured responses.

fix

Use getCalendarData() instead of getCalendar() for filtered results.

affects: 4.0 - 4.5.*

Errors

Common errors & fixes

tradingeconomics.exceptions.AuthenticationError: Authentication failed

Invalid API key or missing login call before data request.

fix

Ensure te.login('YOUR_API_KEY') is called and key is correct.

AttributeError: module 'tradingeconomics' has no attribute 'getIndicatorData'

Using version 3.x style direct function calls; version 4.x uses module-level functions.

fix

Update imports: use import tradingeconomics as te, then te.getIndicatorData().

TypeError: login() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given

Version 4.5.9 requires keyword argument: te.login(api_key='YOUR_KEY') or positional in older versions.

fix

Use te.login('YOUR_API_KEY') or te.login(api_key='YOUR_API_KEY') depending on version. Check docs.
