Can't pull data via Excel's Refintiv extension

Hello. When using the formula builder in Excel to pull historical data (e.g. RIC aDECUNPQ/A), I get no results.

As you can see in the picture below, the formula in the bottom starts with =RDP.HistoricalPricing. When I previously stated this issue, I received an answer where the formula instead started with =RHistorical. Trying to manually replicate the formula yields no results either as Excel tells me it cannot understand the formula.

With my formula builder, I can insert the instrument itself, however not change the interval or any other parameter and, therefore, not receive any output.

I'm very grateful for any advice.image

    The formula is:

    =RHistory("aDECUNPQ/A","ECONOMIC.Timestamp;ECONOMIC.Value","INTERVAL:1MO",,"TSREPEAT:NO CH:Fd",B2)

  • Thanks a lot for your answer @chavalit.jintamalit and I have followed these steps until number 4. There i do not see any category (Economic indicator). At the same time, my automated formula in the bottom is already different from yours (=RDP.HistoricalPricing instead of=RHistory).
    Also, when copying your formula I get an error message saying "There's a problem with this formula".

    And I checked, Refinitiv is online and updated.
