<summary mdxType="summary">Does OpenBB have coverage for [insert type of data]?</summary>
|
|
|
|
Equity market coverage will vary by provider and subscription status with them. It is common for free tiers to be US-listings only.
|
|
|
|
You can find all data models [here](/platform/data_models), or the [Reference](/platform/reference) page of endpoints.
|
|
|
|
If the type of data you are looking for is not listed there, send us a [feature request](https://openbb.co/request-a-feature) telling us about your use case.

<summary mdxType="summary">The router appears to be missing functions.</summary>
|
|
|
|
The router populates itself from the installed extensions.
|
|
|
|
For example, if the Technical Analysis extension is not installed, the `obb.technical` router path will not be present.
|
|
|
|
The same applies to data extensions. If a provider module is not installed, it will not be displayed as a choice.
|
|
|
|
If you have just installed a new extension, the Python interface may need to be rebuilt. This can be triggered manually with:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import openbb
|
|
openbb.build()
|
|
exit()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
Install all toolkits and data providers with:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install "openbb[all]"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or by cloning the GitHub repo, from the `/openbb_platform/` folder:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python dev_install.py -e
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The nightly PyPI distribution is another way to install everything, and to be on the bleeding edge of development:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install openbb-nightly
|
|
```

|
<summary mdxType="summary">Why is the returned data not matching the start/end date I requested?</summary>
|
|
|
|
The provider may not have data from the requested period, in which case the data will be what they return. For example, `provider='yfinance'` at one-minute intervals will not return beyond one week ago.
|
|
|
|
Another reason could be the data entitlements of your API key. Check the provider's website to know what data coverage to expect.
|
|
|
|
If there is technical problem with a provider or function, please check [GitHub](https://github.com/OpenBB-finance/OpenBBTerminal/issues/new/choose) and raise an issue if one does not already exist.
|
|
|
|
Or, send us an [email](mailto:support@openbb.co) with the details, your system configuration, the syntax used, and any error messages that are raised.

<summary mdxType="summary">How do I load a ticker symbol from India?</summary>
|
|
|
|
Ticker symbols listed on exchanges outside of the US will have a suffix attached, for example, Rico Auto Industries Limited:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from openbb import obb
|
|
data = obb.equity.price.historical("ricoauto.ns", provider="fmp")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The precise naming convention will differ by source, it's best to reference each source's own documentation for conventions.
