Python 3.5 - Quandl error handling

Question

Trying to figure out how to handle the error:

quandl.errors.quandl_error.NotFoundError: (Status 404) (Quandl Error QECx02) You have submitted an incorrect Quandl code. Please check your Quandl codes and try again.

Here's a snippet of the code that I would want the exception on:

            source = Q.get(query_site, authtoken=secret)
            df = df.join(source, how='outer')

I would want to break out if I get the error. What would be with my except statement? I tried NotFoundError but it did not seem to work.

Answer 1

Handling the NotFoundError

from quandl.errors.quandl_error import NotFoundError

try:
    source = Q.get(query_site, authtoken=secret)
    df = df.join(source, how='outer')
except NotFoundError as e:
    print('error: {} '.format(str(e)))
