Attribute Error when querying DGS10; 'Dataframe object has no attribute "convert_objects"'

[carvetighter]

I'm having an issue when I try to pull data from the 10 year yield treasure 'DGS10'. I'm using frb version 1.1.4

Below is the error messages:

Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: 'DataFrame' object has no attribute 'convert_objects'

Below is the applicable code:

fred_conn = Fred(
        api_key = 'my-api-key',
        response_type = 'df'
    )
    df_10y = fred_conn.series.observations(
        series_id = 'DGS10',
        observation_start = date_start.strftime('%Y-%m-%d'),
        observation_end = date_stop.strftime('%Y-%m-%d'),
        frequency = 'd'
    )

    print(df_10y[:10])

If you change

FRB/fred/helpers/__init__.py

Line 55 in 692bcf5

frame = frame.convert_objects(convert_numeric=True)

to

frame = frame.convert_dtypes()

it works.

Yup, that worked. Thanks Tim.
