Return global index data

[enricomosca96]

Hi everyone!
I am trying to use the feature that allows me to extract index data.
When I try to download the data of these indexes: "MSCI Emerging Markets (MSCIEF)", I get this error: "ERR # 0034: country global indexes not found"
Can someone help me?
Below I leave the information of the index

Thanks so much

Hi @enricomosca96, in order to retrieve the information from that concrete index you need to introduce its name and the country='world', as I'm tagging the country as world whenever Investing.com says Global Indices.

So that the function call should look like:

import investpy

data = investpy.get_index_historical_data(index="MSCI Emerging Markets",
                                          country="world",
                                          from_date="01/01/2020",
                                          to_date="01/01/2021")

print(data.head())

For more information please check this doc entry which explains to you how to use the investpy.search_indices() function so that you can look up this information easily. But you should also check this wiki page to see how does the investpy.search_quotes() function works, as you can easily use the Investing.com search engine with it.

Hope this was useful to you! 🤗
