It acts as a provider adapter, translating OpenBB's standardized data requests into Yahoo!Finance queries and returning results in OpenBB's format. The package depends on openbb-core (the platform itself) and yfinance (the underlying data source), and is distributed as a pure-Python wheel with low installation friction.\n\nYou install it alongside OpenBB to add Yahoo!Finance as a data source option. It's maintained actively and supports Python 3.10 through 3.14. The AGPL-3.0-only license means any modifications or derivative works must be shared under the same license terms.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are already using OpenBB Platform and want Yahoo!Finance as a data provider. The package has low install friction, active maintenance, no known vulnerabilities, and integrates cleanly into the OpenBB ecosystem. The AGPL license is a consideration for proprietary deployments. Not relevant if you are not using OpenBB."},"id":"openbb-yfinance","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/openbb-yfinance","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/openbb-yfinance.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/openbb-yfinance/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-05-26","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"agpl","name":"openbb-yfinance","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"yfinance extension for OpenBB"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":102094,"position":12892,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.6.3"}
