finnhub_client.option_chain() command: raise FinnhubRequestException error #61

Description

This code was working previously. Error started about a week ago. I updated to version 2.4.18, but the error still persists.

The following code:

finnhub_api_key = "XYZ"
finnhub_client = finnhub.Client(api_key=finnhub_api_key)
all_options = finnhub_client.option_chain(symbol='TSLA').

Gives this error:

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "site-packages\finnhub\client.py", line 136, in option_chain
    return self._get("/stock/option-chain", params=params)
