Hi @eelundgren 

 

Perhaps you can use an Alteryx workflow instead of Python. I took some inspiration from the page here: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Discussions/Yahoo-Web-Scraping-for-Stock-Prices/td...

 

Here is my solution

One of the other responses in the link takes a Python based macro approach: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Discussions/Yahoo-Web-Scraping-for-Stock-Prices/m-... 

 

I hope this helps! My workflow is attached for reference, no Python or macro needed.

Hi @eelundgren

 

I would just pass your list in as rows of data. See attached,
