How to add quandl Api key to my request in python

Question

I had made a private quandl account and received my quandl Api key but how to add the key to my request in python?

My Code:

import pandas as pd 
import quandl 

df = quandl.get('EOD/V')
print(df.head())

Error:

Answer 1

From the Configuration doc part, you can set it with ApiConfig.api_key :

import quandl
quandl.ApiConfig.api_key = 'tEsTkEy123456789'

Also, from the quandl python doc, you can define additional optional arguments in the get method :

:param str api_key: Downloads are limited to 50 unless api_key is specified

So you could also use :

df = quandl.get('EOD/V', api_key='tEsTkEy123456789')

Simply give api key value in authtoken

import quandl
df = quandl.get('EOD/V', authtoken=='tEsTkEy123456789')
