Hi @lakithasahan, it looks like the source_url() (https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/api/) used by the library does not support LKR in it, hence it throws a RatesNotAvailableError.

Following are the currencies supported by the API link:

      "CAD":1.5444,

this is depending on a free service. We will add optional paid api support soon. someone raise a merge request and it will get merged eventually.
