WebClient is failing to execute the url and get the CSV.

Question

HI,

 

Following code is failing at WebClient statement. I am not able to get the csv from API.

private static async Task<double?> GetStockPriceAsync(string symbol)
       {
           if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(symbol))
               return null;

           string url = $"http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s={symbol}&f=l1" ;
           string csv;

           using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
           {
               csv = await  client.DownloadStringTaskAsync(url).ConfigureAwait(false);
           }

           string line = csv.Split('\n')[0];
           string price = line.Split(',')[1];

           double result;
           if (double.TryParse(price, out result))
               return result;

           return null;
       }

 help me with the new statement that will work apart from WebClient.
