Is there any code that enables us to map/fetch the news source name based on a list of source codes

Technology: Eikon API on Windows Visual Studio Code


I was wondering if there is any code that enables us to map/fetch the news source name based on a list of source codes extracted with get_news_headlines()?


Example:

sourceCode = "NS:RTRS" => return "Reuters News"

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    You need to use the Refinitiv Data Library for Python instead.

    The news examples are on GitHub. Moreover, there is an endpoint to retreive news metadata. The endpoint example is also on GitHub.

    The code looks like this:

    baseurl = "/data/news/v1/metadata/NS:RTRS"

    request_definition = rd.delivery.endpoint_request.Definition(
    url = baseurl,
    method = rd.delivery.endpoint_request.RequestMethod.GET)
    response = request_definition.get_data()
    response.data.raw

    The output is:
