Custom Bars API document request example bug #922
Description
I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS THE CORRECT PLACE TO POST THIS!
Describe the bug
https://polygon.io/docs/rest/stocks/aggregates/custom-bars
I was testing out the API to see if this is usable in my service and i noticed this problem:
the date range is set to a range + 2 years from current time(2025-09-20),
causing the request to always receive ""Your plan doesn't include this data timeframe. Please upgrade your plan at https://polygon.io/pricing" message, which is completely correct, but can be confusing to new users attempting your service.
To Reproduce
- with a fresh account, browse to https://polygon.io/docs/rest/stocks/aggregates/custom-bars
- click 'Run Query'
Expected behavior
that is the expected behavior with the range parameters, but it shouldn't be set at that point for new users attempting to use the service
Screenshots
Additional context
when i request with the following parameters:
https://api.polygon.io/v2/aggs/ticker/AAPL/range/1/day/2024-01-09/2024-02-10?adjusted=true&sort=asc&limit=120&apiKey={YOUR_API_KEY}
i was able to get the correct response.
