Pyton API data different from Eikon

Hello.

I have 2 questions:

1) Tried to get data via Python API for example:

MMKOND=ABMM

And result is (skip the formatting, i did this csv insight my code):

Symbol,Description,CF_BID,CF_ASK,CF_HIGH,CF_LOW,CF_CURR
MMKOND=ABMM,Myanma Kyat Overnight Deposit,,,,,


API request as follow:

answer = eikon_api.get_data(MMKOND=ABMM, CF_BID, parameters={'SDate':'20190929', 'EDate':'20190929', 'interval':'tick'})


And CF_BD, CF_ASK are empty in Data Item Browser also:

As you can see, CF_BID, CF_ASK are empty. But it i request data via application (Price -> Quote history), and data is not empty:

2) How to give paramaters to API, to get historical data for exactly day. Supposed, it should be like follow, but it is not

{'SDate':'20190929', 'EDate':'20190929', 'interval':'history'})

Instead of it , API returns onlt latest data for requested day.

  • Hi @vsoloviev

    I am using JPY= as an example.

    I can retrieve BID and ASK using the following code.

    However in your case, I cannot retrieve BID and ASK for MMKOND=ABMM duing 2018-10-01 to 2018-11-30.

    I am not so sure why the data is not in the time-series database.

    You can contact Refinitiv Content Helpdesk to clarify on this issue.


    And this is how to retrieve Open, High, Low data.
