I was trying to get BSE SENSEX data in R and came across this Import Indian stock prices into R which is useful but I am not able to get SENSEX Index data using getSymbols from quantmod.

I have tried many options but none of them worked

quantmod::getSymbols("SENSEX", src="yahoo")

quantmod::getSymbols("SENSEX.BO", src="yahoo")

quantmod::getSymbols("BSE SENSEX", src="yahoo")

quantmod::getSymbols("BSE SENSEX.BO", src="yahoo")

About Sensex:

SENSEX

quantmod r

Packages tidyquant andQuantmod uses Yahoo Finance. Therefore, check what the security is called on their website, hence: ^BSESN

library(tidyquant)

tq_get("^BSESN")
