    You need to open port 9000: - please find test code below including the set_proxy_port function (must include the L at the end eg 9000L). This should work. Let me know how you get on. This is for windows operating system - if you are using the standalone mac proxy use port 36036.

    library(devtools)


    install_github("ahmedmohamedali/eikonapir")


    library(eikonapir)


    eikonapir::set_proxy_port(9000L)


    eikonapir::set_app_id('Your App Key Here')


    result <- get_symbology(list("MSFT.O",
    "GOOG.O", "IBM.N"),"RIC",list("ISIN"),raw_ouput
    = FALSE,debug=FALSE)


    print(result)
