How to download from python eikon all the contributors and values of an economic indicator poll?

Hello,

I have found that is possible to download the median, high, and low values of a poll of a given economic indicator. As an example:


ek.get_timeseries(['USADP=ECI','pUSADP=M','pUSADP=L','pUSADP=H'],

start_date='2010-03-01',end_date='2020-04-26',

interval='monthly')


However, I wonder if it is possible to download all the contributors and values of the poll.


Thank in advance,


Javier

  • @javierlopezi I don't think that is available by API but it is available in-product on the polls app (for Reuters economic polls type ECOP into eikon search bar) . We do however have additional fields which is the count of poll contributors (=C), Starmine SmartEstimate (=E) and Predicted Surprise (=S). I hope this can help.

    df=ek.get_timeseries(['USADP=ECI','pUSADP=M','pUSADP=L','pUSADP=H','pUSADP=C','pUSADP=E','pUSADP=S'],start_date='2010-03-01',end_date='2021-07-23',interval='monthly')
