Error message

No results found. Try adjusting the query parameters.

What it means

EmptyDataError (default message 'No results found. Try adjusting the query parameters.') raised at the end of get_agency_holdings when the NY Fed response contains an empty soma.holdings array. The request succeeded and validation passed, but nothing matched the as_of/cusip/holding_type combination.

Solutions

1. Fetch valid dates with await SomaHoldings().get_as_of_dates() and pass one explicitly.
2. Double-check the CUSIP against the Fed's published holdings; drop cusip to see if any rows return for that date.
3. Handle EmptyDataError as a no-match result in the caller.

Example fix

// before
h = await SomaHoldings().get_agency_holdings(as_of='2024-06-01')  # a Saturday
// after
dates = await SomaHoldings().get_as_of_dates()
h = await SomaHoldings().get_agency_holdings(as_of=dates[0])

dates = await SomaHoldings().get_as_of_dates()
if as_of and as_of not in dates:
    as_of = dates[0]  # snap to nearest valid SOMA operations date

from openbb_core.provider.standard_errors import EmptyDataError
try:
    holdings = await SomaHoldings().get_agency_holdings(as_of=as_of, cusip=cusip)
except EmptyDataError:
    holdings = await SomaHoldings().get_agency_holdings(as_of=as_of)  # retry without cusip filter

When it happens

Trigger: Passing an as_of date that is not a valid SOMA operations date (e.g. a weekend or holiday); a CUSIP not present in the agency portfolio; holding_type + date combos with no rows; or upstream empty responses.

Common situations: Using calendar dates instead of SOMA business dates (obtainable via get_as_of_dates); typo'd CUSIPs; querying before the dataset's start date.
