1ST TIME USER SETTING UP DEPLOYED_PLATFORM_HOST/USERNAME

shuyuan.wang

Hi all, greetings. I am first time user.

I am going to try the example codes (https://github.com/LSEG-API-Samples/Example.RDPLibrary.Python). It requires setting up certain fields for credentials(https://github.com/LSEG-API-Samples/Example.RDPLibrary.Python/blob/master/credentials.ipynb).

I think the first 3 is just the API Key, my email login and my LSEG Workspace password. But the next 2 fields (DEPLOYED_PLATFORM_HOST and DEPLOYED_PLATFORM_USER_NAME) are new to me. What should I set for these 2? thank you !

APP_KEY = 'YOUR_APP_KEY'

RDP_LOGIN = 'YOUR_REFINITIV_DATA_PLATFORM_LOGIN'

RDP_PASSWORD = 'YOUR_REFINITIV_DATA_PLATFORM_PASSWORD'

DEPLOYED_PLATFORM_HOST = 'THE_IP_OF_YOUR_DEPLOYED_PLATFORM' # a.k.a ADS or TREP

DEPLOYED_PLATFORM_USER_NAME = 'YOUR_USER_NAME_ON_YOUR_DEPLOYED_PLATFORM' # a.k.a DACS user name

Thank you for reaching out to us.

I suggest using the LSEG Data Library for Python instead. Please check the QuickStart for the Access Points that you are using. For example, if you are using the Desktop - Eikon or LSEG Workspace, the app key is only required.

The examples are also available on GitHub.
