Please can you let me know what is refinitiv.data equivalent for rdp.open_platform_session in refinitiv.dataplatform.

More specifically, the equivalent function for below:

rdp.open_platform_session(

'username',
'Password'
)
)

Hi @lisa.mcentee

The syntax looks like this::

session = rd.session.platform.Definition(
    app_key = APP_KEY, 
    grant = rd.session.platform.GrantPassword(
        username = RDP_LOGIN, 
        password = RDP_PASSWORD
    )
).get_session()

You can find the different ways to create a session within the Example Package.

Hello, I am trying to run this example here (https://github.com/Refinitiv-API-Samples/Example.DataLibrary.Python/blob/main/Examples/2-Content/2.02-Pricing/EX-2.02.02-Pricing-StreamingWithDataFrame.ipynb) but I get error on rd.open_session(). When I open a session with the syntax above, it works, but then the commands to get the data don't work...

When I try on my Jupyter notebook to run the rd.open_session(), I get the error:
