    Hi @dfsmfc ,

    In Refinitiv Workspace/Eikon Desktop application, you can search for an application Economic Indicators (ECONIND).

    In this application, you can search for countries/regions (here I put India as an example), and Indicator, I searched for "sovereign credit ratings", then picked the 3rd one (Anti-Corruption Risk, Sovereign credit ratings, Score, Business Surveys, Monthly, Country Risk Ranking (aINACSOVSR)

    Here you can also search for other indicators you're interested in.

    Regarding an API usage, you can used the RD Library (Python) to retrieve this data, for example

    import refinitiv.data as rd
    rd.open_session()

    rd.get_history("aINACSOVSR")
