Is Energy data accessible via API?

Hi,

I was wondering if the Energy data on Eikon (PointConnect/PointCarbon) is available through an API? Currently the data can be downloaded via the Download Manager Excel sheet, but this process is cumbersome. An API solution if available would be a great alternative.


Kind regards,


Hans

    Hi @hans.frijters, The ESG data is available in Eikon and can be invoked through Python API. You can use the Data Item Browser to see which data points are available. For e.g. searching on Carbon, I see:

    >>> ek.get_data('IBM.N', ['TR.CO2EmissionTotal'])
    ( Instrument CO2 Equivalent Emissions Total
    0 IBM.N 1496517, None)
