Eikon Scripting API (Python) PrimaryRIC's not pulling using Screen as input for tickers

Johann Lourens

Eikon Scripting API (Python): df, err = ek.get_data(['SCREEN(U(IN(Equity(active,public,primary,countryprimaryquote))), IN(TR.ExchangeCountryCode,''ZA'')),CFRJ.J'], ['TR.PrimaryRIC']). Does not pull PrimaryRIC for every ticker in screen. Majority are missed out. Why?

Zhenya Kovalyov

Hi Johann, try using TR.PrimaryQuote instead.

Johann Lourens

What is the main difference between TR.PrimaryQuote and TR.PrimaryRIC?

Johann Lourens

Just to also bring up that df, err = ek.get_data(['SCREEN(U(IN(Equity(active,public,primary,countryprimaryquote))), IN(TR.ExchangeCountryCode,''ZA'')),CFRJ.J'], ['TR.PrimaryRIC']) worked at the end of last week, but is now pulling incomplete list

Zhenya Kovalyov

how many entries would you expect to see there?

Zhenya Kovalyov

Not sure, I have asked the content teams to provide me with an explanation

Johann Lourens

Hi Zhenya. Approximately 400

Zhenya Kovalyov

are you still experiencing this? if yes, i think you should raise this as a separate question

Johann Lourens

I am. I will raise a separate question
