    @Ajay Sharma So to use the Datastream API (which is what I think you are trying to do) you need to have a Datastream username and password as follows:

    If you do not have these Datastream credentials - the API will not work. You can subscribe to Datastream as an add-on service to Eikon/Workspace.

    Moreover, to use Eikon Data API in Codebook - you do not need to set an appkey as it uses :

    For Refinitiv Data Libraries in Codebook- you do not need an appkey either - you just:

    import refinitiv.data as rd
    rd.open_session()

    and you are ready to go.

    You can see examples of all these and more in the Codebook __Examples__ folder. I hope this can help.
