How to solve Python cannot post 404 Error?

kostas.kumza
kostas.kumza
in Eikon Data APIs

Trying to grab the most basic request to try out API and get the following Error code:

Error code 404 | Client Error: <!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang="en">

<head>

<meta charset="utf-8">

<title>Error</title>

</head>

<body>

<pre>Cannot POST /api/v1/data</pre>

</body>

</html>

1) Eikon is listening on port 9000

2) Python API version is latest

3) Using EIKON Desktop 4.0.50(4.0.50046) on MS Windows 10 Pro

I see there are few Q&A entries already but there has not been a solution. Also contacted support that suggested I must first create Q&A entry.

Please help as the price history of 1min intervals in EIKON is limited to 3 prior months which is way too little.

    Hi @kostas.kumza

    Your Eikon account is Eikon - Exchange Pricing variant which does not include API access.

    Please contact your account manager to discuss the product and subscription level.

    I have the exact same problem - only my code ran fine on my account before the standalone api was taken away - any suggestions?

    Hi @bjoern@square

    I could not find any Eikon account using your registered email on this portal.

    I found 2 accounts using the domain name of your company but both of they are using Eikon Core variant which does not include API feature.

    You can contact your Refinitiv account manager to discuss the subscription tier.
