In order to request data from my microservice, you need to get an API key. In the place where you need to enter your API_KEY I commented the link where you can get your free one.
I'll link it here too just in case. https://www.alphavantage.co/support/#api-key
The only place you need to change the code in order to make a request to the API is commented at the bottom.
(i.e.. (#Define the currencies you plan to use here) and (#example call to the function))
get_historical_data will send a request to the ALPHA VANTAGE services to get the historic exchange rates. You do not have to worry about changing anything other than the places I have detailed above. I highlighted them in purple just for easier viewing.
here is an example response shown in the console for viewing the exchange rate between EUR and USD on the date July 25th, 2023
