Thank you for reaching out ot us.

First, you need to know RICs that can provide this information.

For example, I found that DST-STK-T-EIA represents "EIA STATISTICS US Total Distillate Fuel Oil Stocks Weekly Contract". Then, I can use this RIC with the Refinitiv Data Library for Python to retreive weekly historical data.

rd.get_history(universe="DST-STK-T-EIA",start="2019-01-01",end="2023-11-06", interval='1W')

The output is:

You can contact the Eikon or Refinitiv Workspace support team directly via MyRefinitiv to get those RICs.

Hi, I'm trying to set this up for my boss --- where, or how, would I begin to download this report from Eikon?! Please advise, thanks!

You can use the Refinitiv Data Library for Python to retrieve the data.

There are examples available on GitHub.
