Enhanced Fixed Income with renamed models, EFFR & SOFR data standardization, and expanded fields. Revamped Federal Reserve and FRED data endpoints, and removed deprecated Ameribor series. New features include storing defaults, Economic Surveys router path, Intrinio Delayed Options, and Mortgage Indices endpoint.

🐛 OpenBB Platform Bug Fixes

The new release includes three significant changes:

  1. A bug in the Econdb JSON loads context has been fixed, enhancing the functionality of the static assets by adding a context manager to json.load. The fix will address the issue documented in #6508.

  2. Base exceptions have been substituted with OpenBBError to align with new exception handlers. This step will ensure more meaningful error messages across Python, CLI, or API for users.

  3. Lastly, an issue preventing the retrieval of FY 2025 in the earnings transcript has been fixed, changing the validation to allow values less than the current year + 1. This adjustment allows mapping of FY 2025 to 2025, instead of 2024 as it did before, for example in NVDA.

Other updates improved user interaction, such as handling space-separated arguments better. Certain credentials are only updated on login, preventing unnecessary resetting of user preferences.

Key corrections include updating GitHub workflows, replacing python-jose by PyJWT due to security concerns, fixing errors in the Econ Calendar, making paper_bgcolor transparent in the PyWry backend, and exposing error messages on request failure in AV Historical EPS. Auxiliary corrections include case-insensitive credentials, and more. Additional testing was done to ensure the proper functioning of these corrections.

The license for the codebase is now AGPL, with a dedicated FAQ page for licensing added to platform documentation. The CLI Installation Pre-Requisites now include guidelines for Linux, while new pages have been created for CLI docs keeping with the familiar Terminal structure.
