Bruno,

I just tested, works fine for me:
$ Argus:/Users/john> gnc-fq-dump yahoo_json AAPL
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
    symbol: AAPL                 <=== required
      date: 03/20/2019           <=== recommended
  currency: USD                  <=== required
      last: 188.16               <=\
       nav:                      <=== one of these
     price:                      <=/
  timezone:                      <=== optional

 A 500 server error means a glitch at Yahoo!, not anything to do with 
Finance::Quote. They'd obviously resolved it by the time you used your browser.

Regards,
John Ralls
