How to get the full body of a news story?

After subscribing to N2_UBMS for headlines, I've attempted to get the news body by requesting individual PNACs

However I only getting part of the story. I would have expected to keep getting refresh messages until the story was complete.

There is a field MORE_NEWS but I can't find any info on what this means

Is there anything else I need to do?

    After you subscribe to PNAC, You can get part of the news story from SEG_TEXT field.

    If NEXT_LR field is not empty, you have to subscribe to it and get the next part of the news story.
    You can repeat this process until the NEXT_LR field is empty.

  • Hi @chavalit.jintamalit and @jinhuang,

    Could you please explain how to get the headlines and the the news Body ?

    is it similar to subscribing for the market price feed ? with a different service name ?

  • Hi @yajnasteju,

    To get the headlines: subscribe to market price feed with RIC N2_UBMS, same service name. In the updates messages, you will receive the headlines, with a field named PNAC (field ID 235)

    To get the news body: subscribe to PNAC value .. (as described by @chavalit.jintamalit's answer), market price, same service name.

  • Hi I am trying to get the newsbody through PNAC, but only get partial.. NEXT_LR field is not retrieving any information.. for example, n#1UqLS902 is the next_lr value for PNAC nBSE9CMH5f .. and i dont see any result retrieved for n#1UqLS902.. Is it possible to retrieve the detail in .net API.. In python, i think there is a method to get ek.get_news_headlines('xxx'), how to do that in .NET API?
