Hi Pyth team,

I’m a fellow in the Gauntlet AI fellowship working on Meridian, a partner project using Pyth for settlement of MAG7 binary outcome markets on Solana devnet.

I’m running into the same entitlement issue as this accepted request from a peer challenger:

> [@Temporary Pyth Trial Permissions Upgrade for Fellowship](https://dev-forum.pyth.network/t/temporary-pyth-trial-permissions-upgrade-for-fellowship/845):
>
> Hi Pyth team, I’m a fellow in the Gauntlet AI fellowship. My Pyth Terminal trial key (account email: [kaushalbalagurusamy@berkeley.edu](mailto:kaushalbalagurusamy@berkeley.edu)) is only entitled to Equity.US.TSLA/USD. Could you add the six other MAG7 regular-session feeds for the length of the project? Details below. link Chain Solana devnet. Settlement reads PriceUpdateV2 through the pro-compatible receiver rec2HHDDnjLfj4kE7VyEtFA1HPGQLK33259532cRyHp (pyth-solana-receiver-sdk 2.0.0, Anchor 1.2). stopwatch Timestamp of the issue …

My Pyth account email is:  
[batista.sjsu@gmail.com](mailto:batista.sjsu@gmail.com)

Contact email:  
[andre.batista@challenger.gauntletai.com](mailto:andre.batista@challenger.gauntletai.com)

I verified that my API key is valid and works for crypto feeds, but not for the U.S. equity feed I tested.

AAPL test:

```auto
curl -i \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PYTH_API_KEY" \
  "https://hermes.pyth.network/v2/updates/price/latest?parsed=true&ids[]=49f6b65cb1de6b10eaf75e7c03ca029c306d0357e91b5311b175084a5ad55688"

```

Result at Tue, 06 Oct 2026 18:22:09 GMT:

```auto
HTTP/2 403
Not entitled: feed 49f6b65cb1de6b10eaf75e7c03ca029c306d0357e91b5311b175084a5ad55688 (no grant accepts this feed (asset type 'equity', instrument type 'spot', exchange 1))

```

Using the same API key, BTC/USD succeeds:

```auto
curl -i \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PYTH_API_KEY" \
  "https://hermes.pyth.network/v2/updates/price/latest?parsed=true&ids[]=e62df6c8b4a85fe1a67db44dc12de5db330f7ac66b72dc658afedf0f4a415b43"

```

Result at Tue, 06 Oct 2026 18:23:34 GMT:

```auto
HTTP/2 200

```

So this appears to be specifically an equity entitlement issue rather than an API authentication issue.

For Meridian I need temporary access to the MAG7 equity feeds:

- AAPL
- MSFT
- GOOGL
- AMZN
- NVDA
- META
- TSLA

The project is being built on Solana devnet and uses Pyth prices for on-chain settlement of daily binary stock outcome markets at the U.S. regular-session close.

Would it be possible to temporarily enable the required U.S. equity permissions on my trial account for the duration of the fellowship challenge?

Thanks,  
Andre Batista

Hi @KemarTiti, could you also enable the MAG7 permissions for my Pyth Terminal account: [ericmheilman@gmail.com](mailto:ericmheilman@gmail.com)? I am in the same fellowship and could use this temporary access to complete the challenge as well.

Perfect, confirmed - thank you!
