When you say "specifying it in the environment file," do you mean ~/.bash_profile, or the environment file located deep in the gnucash.app bundle? If the former, the bash environment variables won't affect the gnucash.app instance. If the latter, I would double check the first-listed entry to see whether I had somehow missed something. In my installation, I had a couple that I thought o had changed, but which still weren't changed to alphavantage. David
