Audience field in RDP news story

makarand.vaidya

We are using RDP news API to get news stories in json format. The audience field sometimes has _qcode or _literal e.g.

"audience": [

{

"_qcode": "NP:CLN"

},

{

"_literal": "CMF"

},

{

"_qcode": "NP:CMN"

},

{

"_qcode": "NP:DNP"

}

],

In "NEWS SERVICE REFINITIV DATA PLATFORM " user guide 2.0 (June 2020) I did not find info about "_literal" attribute. Is there some document describing the _literal?

Can other fields like subject also contain entries with _literal ?

Hi @makarand.vaidya ,

I cannot find the document that describes the "_literal" field either.

However, the "audience" field is described in page the 24 of the user guide as below

As checked, this field seems to be product codes in the MRN data as News Product Code values are represented as literal values (both in audience._literal, and the corresponding Destinations newsMessage.header.destination._literal)

However, this forum is aimed at answering "how to" types of questions about using Refinitiv APIs and the moderators are not Content/Data specialists.

As this is more of a content question, I recommend you raise a Content ticket on MyRefinitiv. Please specify the product that you are using in the submitted ticket.
