Hi, I am trying to download data for the time series with mnemotic AUQ.1.T40, which has no RIC associated. How can I overcome the missing corrispondence?

    You can use this mnemonic with datastream. AUQ.1.T4O represents Australia, Ratio of Total Reserves Minus Gold to Imports Cost, Insurance, Freight.

    However, you need to know the datatype that you need to retrieve. For the sample, the following code retrieves Economics actual values (ESA) of AUQ.1.T4O.

    df = ds.get_data (tickers='AUQ.1.T4O',fields= ['ESA'], start='2011-01-01', end='2019-08-10', kind=1)

    You can directly contact the DataStream support team via MyRefinitiv for datatypes that can be used with AUQ.1.T4O.
