At the time this thread started, I was using https://exchangeratesapi.io/ which Martin (M.) also mentioned in the thread. Since then, they have changed their terms of use: it is no longer possible to use the API at all without an API key, and even with an API key it is not possible to set the base currency if you are on the free API usage tier. I have checked a couple of other similar services, and it seems that this is now a common restriction: no base currency selection within the free API usage tiers. I'm hence about to scrape one of the two sources mentioned by Daniele above. Doing so makes me sad, but it's better than nothing. If in the meantime others have found viable alternatives, please shout! Cheers -- Stefano Zacchiroli . z...@upsilon.cc . upsilon.cc/zack . . o . . . o . o Computer Science Professor .
