Kraken API: "ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded"

[rothj]

I'm working with the Kraken API to pull OHLC data and am receiving the following error in some of my API requests:

"Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/someone/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/krakenex/api.py", line 83, in _query
    return json.loads(ret)
  File "/Users/someone/anaconda/lib/python2.7/json/__init__.py", line 339, in loads
    return _default_decoder.decode(s)
  File "/Users/someone/anaconda/lib/python2.7/json/decoder.py", line 364, in decode
    obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end())
  File "/Users/someone/anaconda/lib/python2.7/json/decoder.py", line 382, in raw_decode
    raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded")
ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded"

Can anyone advise me on how to avoid this error?

Thanks!
Jake

you have to post the code that you used, or at least the value that passed in that code as the JSON data not the exception that was thrown.

my guess is you passing something that is not a JSON as a JSON to your code which is why it can not decode it.

break down your code to where you are passing that JSON in and see what the real value is.

this is what that JSON should look like: https://api.kraken.com/0/public/OHLC?pair=XBTUSD&interval=1440
