Possible values of interval in eikon.get_timeseries()

in Eikon Data APIs 
Possible values: 'tick', 'minute', 'hour', 'daily', 'weekly', 'monthly', 'quarterly', 'yearly'

In get_timeseries(), the possible values that the parameter "interval" can take are the ones above. On the other hand, for a given RIC, not all will be available.

Let us say I want to extract historical data about the US GDP (USGDPF=ECI). In this case, 'quarterly' and 'yearly' are available, but not 'hour'.

From my jupyter notebook, how could I establish what the available intervals are?

    Hi @as4426 ,

    In Jupyter Notebook, you will know if the data in each interval is not available by checking from the error shown after running the code.

    Error code Error | USGDPF=ECI: Interval is not supported |
