Error message

No data found. Try again later.

What it means

OpenBBError from SomaHoldings.get_release_log: the release-log (or treasury release-dates) endpoint returned no soma.dates array. Like 374, it signals a failed/empty upstream response for a metadata list that should never legitimately be empty.

Solutions

1. Retry the call after a delay.
2. Hit the underlying URL directly to check whether soma.dates is still present; if the key moved, update _get_endpoints/parsing in the provider.
3. Cache the last good release log so transient failures fall back to a recent copy.

try:
    log = await SomaHoldings().get_release_log(treasury=treasury)
except OpenBBError:
    log = cache.get('soma_release_log')  # fallback to last good copy
    if log is None:
        raise

When it happens

Trigger: Calling get_release_log(treasury=True/False) while the NY Fed API is degraded, its response schema changed, or a proxy/interceptor returns an empty body; the code path picks list_release_dates vs release_log by the treasury flag and both read soma.dates.

Common situations: Scheduled jobs hitting the NY Fed during maintenance windows; schema rename of the 'dates' key; network middleboxes stripping JSON bodies.
