Eikon Data API Proxy for Mac OSX Download

Where can I find Eikon Data API Proxy for Mac OSX? The link in the tutorial, https://github.com/yhilpisch/eikondataapi/blob/master/notebooks/02_tpq_eikon_mac_install.ipynb, is invalid, and I cannot find it under download tab.

Thanks.

    Hi @qiaoqiao.zhu ,

    Referring to this page, at the present time, Eikon cannot be installed natively on Mac® operating systems so users would need virtualization software to run in Windows to get the full desktop experience.

    It supports macOS for web access. Sorry for this confusion.

    Alternatively, you may use the Refinitiv CodeBook on the Workspace or Eikon Web version to run the Eikon Data API in the web browser. Please see more detail on this Use Eikon Data API or RDP Library in Python in CodeBook on Web Browser article.

    The CodeBook is the Cloud-hosted Jupyterlab app in Eikon/Workspace with Eikon Data API and other Refinitiv Desktop Python APIs pre-installed.

    Hope this helps and please let me know in case you have any questions
