Earnings calendar in Excel using the Eikon API

Greetings, I am looking to create an earnings calendar on Excel for S&P 500, Nasdaq and Stoxx 600 data through API Data. I tried with CodeCreator to obtain data for Tesla and Apple as a test:

But Tesla expected earnings date seems to be wrong?
Also, is it possible to add multiple RIC to the CreatorCode?

Thanks,

    Hi @gary.christie ,

    Using Data Item Browser application, available value of each parameter can be found in Parameters tab as below

    Here I apply the event type parameter into the Python script, also you can put the start date and end date of the data you're interested in the parameters as well

    df = rd.get_data(
    universe = [
    'AAPL.O',
    'TSLA.O'
    ],
    fields = [
    'CF_NAME',
    'TR.EventStartDate',
    'TR.EventType',
    'TR.EventTitle',
    'TR.EventStartTime'
    ],
    parameters = {'EventTyps': 'RES', 'SDate': '2024-01-01', 'EDate': '2024-05-01'}
    )

    display(df)

    Using the Data Item Browser, the same result of Expected report date is shown there as well.1705904552855.png

    As this forum is dedicated to an API usage question hence,
    the moderators on this forum do not have deep expertise in every type of
    content available through Refinitiv products, such as the field name to be used or content clarification. Such expertise is available
    through Refinitiv Helpdesk, which can be reached via MyRefinitiv and the support team is going to contact you directly to assist with
    this.

    Regarding how to add multiple RICs into Code Creator, each RIC can be added one by one into the Search Instrument box. However, if you would like to add multiple RICs at once, you can also copy the code generated from the Code Creator and add multiple RICs into the code directly with the syntax below

    ..
    universe = [ 'RIC1', RIC2', 'RIC3', 'RIC4']
    ...

    Hope this helps and please let me
    know in case you have any further questions.

  • Thanks for your answer,

    I've found this with the CodeCreator:

    import refinitiv.data as rd
    rd.open_session()
    df = rd.get_data(
    universe = [
    'AAPL.O',
    'TSLA.O'
    ],
    fields = [
    'CF_NAME',
    'TR.EventStartDate',
    'TR.EventType',
    'TR.EventTitle',
    'TR.EventStartTime'
    ]
    )

    display(df)

    And I got this answer:

    How do I specify that I only want to get the Event Type "EarningsReleases"?

    Also, I just want the next day's data?

    Thanks,
