Python EIKON api : 400 error..intermittently...while only trying to load one Single DataPoint even

berndm

Hi,

while the 400 error seems to be happening for a lot of users (for my complete team now ...all the time to the point of Refinitiv being unusable), there is not real solution it appears? Can you pls advice?

df,err=ek.get_data("EUR=","BID")

Hi @berndm, to investigate our issue, may I please ask (i) if you tried collecting data with the new library, RD? (ii) for logs, that you can collect as shown here.

Hi Jonathan! Thanks for reverting. I have switched from the eikon library to your suggested RD library and that already has done the trick. No logs needed it appears at this point at least, as get_data and the likes works now (again)
