Hey! I'm not sure where your problem is and I haven't used this for a while now so I wouldn't know. Maybe Morningstar changed something and it's not working anymore. If it helps, below is a link to the repository where I implemented all of the API calls I found avaliable at the time. You can play with those to see if something doesn't work anymore. Last time I tried all of them worked.
