Data Item Code for "US GDP Final*"

I want to extract data on "US GDP Final*" using the eikon Data API. How can I find the corresponding instruments, fields and parameters? I tried with Data Item Browser, but I didn't know how to search.

    The moderators on this forum are not content specialist but will guide as much as we can. If you are interested in assistance around content, it is usually best if you go through "Help & Support" by pressing F1 within the desktop application - they can bring in a content specialist if needed.

    Within the DIB (Data Item Browser), the application will usually provide the necessary assistance to guide you through. For example, within the search bar you can type in an expression such as "US GDP" and it may provide the relevant details you are after. For example:

    The above result appears to point to US GDP Final, but I would confirm with the helpdesk if this does not appear to be accurate.

    Once you select your preferred instrument, you can begin to hunt down your fields. However, I can see there appears to be no instruments for this instrument - something the helpdesk can guide.

    Hope this helps.
