    To get the historical Tick data, you need to have permission to access Tick History templates.

    For example, I can use TickHistoryTimeAndSalesExtractionRequest to retrieve historical data.

    The request looks like this.

    {
      "ExtractionRequest": {
        "@odata.type": "#DataScope.Select.Api.Extractions.ExtractionRequests.TickHistoryTimeAndSalesExtractionRequest",
        "ContentFieldNames": [
            "Trade - Price",
            "Trade - Volume",
            "Trade - Exchange Time"
        ],
        "IdentifierList": {
          "@odata.type": "#DataScope.Select.Api.Extractions.ExtractionRequests.InstrumentIdentifierList",  
          "InstrumentIdentifiers": [{
            "Identifier": ".VIX",
            "IdentifierType": "Ric"
          }]
        },
        "Condition": {
          "MessageTimeStampIn": "GmtUtc",
          "ApplyCorrectionsAndCancellations": false,
          "ReportDateRangeType": "Range",
          "QueryStartDate": "2022-03-01T00:00:00.000Z",
          "QueryEndDate": "2022-03-02T12:00:00.000Z",
          "DisplaySourceRIC": true
        }
      }
    }

    The output is:
