Error in data.table::rbindlist

[MislavSag]

I am trying to retrieve all statements for set of tickers:

    tickers <- c("A", "AA", "AAL", "AAN", "AAOI", "AAON", "AAP", "AAPL", "AAT", 
                 "AAWW", "ABBV", "ABC", "ABCB", "ABEO", "ABG", "ABM", "ABMD", 
                 "ABNB", "ABR", "ABT", "ABTX", "ABUS", "ACA", "ACAD", "ACC", "ACCO", 
                 "ACER", "ACET", "ACGL", "ACHC", "ACI", "ACIW", "ACLS", "ACM", 
                 "ACN", "ACRX", "ACU", "ACY", "ADBE", "ADC", "ADES", "ADI", "ADM", 
                 "ADMA", "ADNT", "ADOM", "ADP", "ADPT", "ADS", "ADSK", "ADT", 
                 "ADTN", "ADUS", "ADVM", "ADXS", "AEE", "AEHR", "AEIS", "AEO", 
                 "AEP", "AES", "AFG", "AFI", "AFL", "AGCO", "AGI", "AGIO", "AGLE", 
                 "AGNC", "AGO", "AGR", "AGS", "AGX", "AGYS", "AHH", "AIG", "AIMC", 
                 "AINC", "AIR", "AIRC", "AIRI", "AIT", "AIV", "AIZ", "AJG", "AJRD", 
                 "AJX", "AKAM", "AKR", "AL", "ALB", "ALCO", "ALE", "ALEX", "ALG", 
                 "ALGN", "ALGT", "ALK", "ALKS", "ALL")
    ratios <- sfa_get_statement(ticker = tickers, 
                                statement = "all", 
                                period = "quarters", 
                                start = Sys.Date() - 5000,
                                end = Sys.Date(),
                                ttm = TRUE,
                                shares = TRUE)

but I am getting an error

Error in data.table::rbindlist(DT_list, use.names = TRUE) : 
  Item 13 has 220 columns, inconsistent with item 1 which has 227 columns. To fill missing columns use fill=TRUE.

Confirmed. I need to investigate.

Fixed in the dev version. Thanks for reporting.

The underlying problem was the fact that the SimFin API does not always return all columns (I guess if they are all empty). This lead to the problem in rbindlist() which tried to bind data.tables with different number of columns. Added fill = TRUE to solve this.
