Finance Yahoo Currencies API
Question
Previously we are using https://finance.yahoo.com/webservice/v1/symbols/allcurrencies/quote?format=json to get all the currencies exchange rate for our application. However, realized that currently this link doesn't work anymore. What should we use now?

You can use YahooFinancials (Python Module) to get currency data from YahooFinanace:
$ pip install yahoofinancials
https://github.com/JECSand/yahoofinancials
from yahoofinancials import YahooFinancials
currencies = ['EURUSD=X', 'JPY=X', 'GBPUSD=X']
yahoo_financials_currencies = YahooFinancials(currencies)
print(yahoo_financials_currencies.get_historical_price_data("2018-08-01", "2018-08-10", "daily"))
Which returns:
