Hi Alex,
I just set up a test stock in GnuCash with the stock you listed. Yahoo JSON
worked - but you have to use their ticker symbol ("GIVN.SW"). You can find
this on the Yahoo Finance website.
Incidentally, in the Security Editor where Alphavantage is listed, it says
"US" after it, which suggests it only works with US-based items. I use
Yahoo-JSON for all my own assets. It's been reliable, accurate and covers
everything I've needed so far - including cryptocurrency. Now I know it
includes international stocks too.
In GnuCash go to Tools - Security Editor and choose New to add your stock,
or Edit if it already exists. The bottom half of the pop-up window is for
quote information. After selecting "Get Online Quotes", in the Single quote
source section, choose the dropdown. You'll find Yahoo JSON at the bottom
of that list.
Best,
Colin
