How to use Datastream formula that exceeds 45 characters without creating Expression in DSWS

I'm trying to use REGB#(PCH#(CFM#(ASXAORD,VAL),1M),PCH#(CFM#(X,VAL),1M),60M) , but due to char limit, i had to build expression 'E3BT' from below in DSWS.

beta_DS = ds.get_data(tickers='<BHP.AX>', fields = ['E3BT'], kind=0)

beta_WS, err = ek.get_data(['BHP.AX'], [ 'TR.BetaFiveYear'])

print(beta_DS)

print(beta_WS)

Is there a way to use the formula without having to create an Expression?

It should be the limitation in the API when requesting static data.

However, the same formula works fine with timeseries data.

df = ds.get_data(tickers='<BHP.AX>',fields=['REGB#(PCH#(CFM#(ASXAORD,VAL),1M),PCH#(CFM#(X,VAL),1M),60M)'],kind=1,freq='M')
df

Please contact the Datastream Webservice support team directly via MyRefinitiv to verify this limiation.
