Hi,
Some requests can spend more than 60 seconds to resolve by the platform and/or due to a low network bandwidth.
You can increase the timeout with the function ek.set_timeout before calling ek.get_data()
Can it be that sometimes API is overloaded? E.g. yesterday and today (18/09 and 19/09) data retrieving takes too much time and I get ReadTimeout errors often. I use ek.set_timeout but it doesn't seem to help much.
