schedule_and_record keeps throwing an error

[teagenwilliams]

I was using to schedule_and_record() to retrieve individual game data for the 2022 season. It was working without any issues then all of a sudden start throwing:
"ValueError: Data cannot be retrieved for this team/year combo. Please verify that your team abbreviation is accurate and that the team existed during the season you are searching for."

I am not sure what the problem is since the arguments I am inputing have not changed. Any help to fix this would be appreciated.

Can you post the call that throws the error (e.g. what team/date combo?)

Even the example in the write up is throwing the error

It looks like it's not retrieving the table at all. Did you run this in a loop in the last hour or so? I can test later but I would bet that you hit the request limit. If you do it more than once, they'll often block you for an hour or so

That's probably my issue. Thanks!

You can add sleeps to prevent. The most recent version introduced a session manager to try to prevent this from happening. Have you updated to 2.2.5 yet?

I'm not sure if I was before, but I am now

Adding the sleeps fixed the issue. Thanks again

Did it persist in 2.5.5 before the sleeps? Glad you got it sorted out.
