[Python] DataReader KeyError: 'structure' for Oecd data

I'm running the following code to retrive data from OECD:

import datetime
import pandas as pd
import pandas_datareader.data as web

start_date = datetime.datetime(2013, 12, 31)
end_date = datetime.datetime(2023, 12, 31)

#SPECIFIC DATABASE WITHIN OECD API
database = 'MEI_FIN'

df1 = web.DataReader(database, 'oecd', start_date, end_date)
df1


I'm reciving the following error:

File D:\conda3\Lib\site-packages\pandas_datareader\io\jsdmx.py:44, in read_jsdmx(path_or_buf)
41 else:
42 data = json.loads(jdata, object_pairs_hook=OrderedDict)

45 index = _parse_dimensions(structure["dimensions"]["observation"])
46 columns = _parse_dimensions(structure["dimensions"]["series"])

KeyError: 'structure'


In general, I'm having huge troubles trying to retrieve data from the OECD via Python; almost everything that I tried is not working. I would gladly receive some tips on how to approach this issue.
