How do I retrieve fundamental and reference data from the Data Cloud with JET?

Real-time data is covered by JET.Quotes:

JET.Quotes.create()
.rics(".SPX")
.formattedFields("CF_LAST")
.onUpdate(onUpdate)
.start();

What would be the equivalent request for fundamental and reference data, please?

E.g. in Eikon for Office terminology, something like TR.Revenue, or to take a parameterized example, TR.TotalReturn(sdate=0D,edate=-1AY).

  • As of yet, only real time/delayed, timeseries, symbology and news data is available in JET.

  • You may use UDF (cpurl://views.cp./Apps/UDF).

    UDF provides a unified front-ent to content from over 50 Thomson Reuters services, such as Top News, fundamentals, and street events, through a common JSON-POST style interface. 

    There are a lot of services available in UDF. From my test, ADC service can provide the values for TR.Revenue and TR.TotalReturn.

  • Thanks, Zhenya. This appears to be a straightforward way to access ADC data.

  • Thanks, Jirapongse. I suspect DataGrid will serve well for my ADC purposes, but UDF is clearly interesting based on the wide range of sources offered. Since I am not familiar with JSON-POST style interfaces I would need to invest some time in order to use the UDF technology in my apps...
