How to update RIC via EIKON API

Recently, SAIC.N is changed to SAIC.O. How to keep track of such RIC change via EIKON API functions? Our application relies on RIC as the unique identifier to a list of securities and needs to keep track of these RIC changes once it happen.

Hi @yansheng.ming ,

I would suggest (i) updating to the RD Lib. and (ii) using the Search API. If you are using Python, this equate to using hte RD Lib. for Python and its search functionality (best explained in this article).

Thanks for your suggestions. We are looking for a quick fix via EIKON api, if that is possible.
