Machine Readable News api: news classification

Julian.Bai

Hi team, one of our clients is using MRN api to feed news into their own system. Currently the news can only be classified by company (like CUSIP or ISIN), they're asking whether our MRN can be classified based on industry or not?

Hello @Julian.Bai ,

MRN news comes with metadata, that helps understand the meaning of the news.

As part of MRN news Real-time stream, you should see subjects, for example:

 "subjects": [
    "A:4",
    "M:1QD",
    "M:2CT",
    "M:2D1",
    "U:24",
    "U:C",
    "R:PGA0002",
    "R:PGA002",
    "R:PGACN0002",
    "R:PGACN002",
    "N2:CDTY",
    "N2:COM",
    "N2:LEN",
    "N2:NRG",
    "N2:PROD"
  ],

For the structure of the news, please refer to MRN Data Models Implementation Guide.

For the specific codes, please refer to My Refinitiv| Refinitiv Machine Readable News->News codes document, this contains the latest least of the available news codes, I see Industries in Named Items.

To obtain in-depth consultation specifically on the content that is available, please submit directly to Refinitiv content support experts.

Hope that this information is of help
