ek version

in Eikon Data APIs

Hi. I'm pretty new to this so please don't be too shocked at the simple queries I may make. How can I upgrade my version of 'ek'? When I enter " ek.__version__ " in python I get. '0.1.13'. I know that is old and I'd like to get on the newest version. Thanks.

    Hi,

    I assume you installed eikon from pypi.org with the command "pip install eikon".

    To upgrade it, you can type :

    pip install eikon--upgrade

    You should switch to the latest version (1.1.2)

    Greetings. Sorry for the delayed response.

    'pip install eikon--upgrade' did not work.

    However 'pip install eikon --upgrade' did.

    I also got messages that stated I needed to upgrade python. So I ran 'python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip'

    Now i'm on 20.2 and ek.__version__'1.1.2' . Many thanks for your assistance.

    (I also had to manually permission my python folder to allow the install...)
